Read it:
Manchester, Derby and Ängelholm, 1863 to 2025. Henry Royce is a miller's son with a year of schooling who builds electric cranes until foreign competition takes the margin, buys a French car he dislikes, and makes a better one in the corner of his own works. Charles Rolls sells it, Claude Johnson stages it, and a trade paper's sentence about the best car in the world outlives all three men. Ninety years later a Swede of twenty-two with no factory, no engine and no supplier sets out to build the fastest car on earth, and arrives at the same discipline by the same road. Between them stands one question: what does refusing the ordinary compromise actually cost, and who pays it? Covers Henry Royce, Charles Rolls, Claude Johnson, Christian von Koenigsegg, Rolls-Royce, and Koenigsegg.
