Our lad received a TVR book for Christmas, nice gift from his lady friend. Concentrates on the Peter Wheeler era and is written by Ralph Dodds.
Now there's a name I know from my own TVR days. Just curious but I expect and hope of course that Ralph is still supporting the TVR CC?

Funnily enough, I had a copy of that book from Santa too.

Read it already, really informative.

Excellent book! Took my copy on holiday mid-2016; managed to read it cover-to-cover (unlike any previous books in the last decade-or-so), then back into it again - it really is that well written & detailed: researched, compiled, produced and with many cross-references to interesting source information.

I have no connection with Ralph (other than also being a TVRCC member for some years past) but must say that he most certainly did his subject full justice!

Thanks guys, good to know Ralph is still TVR'ing. Must be thirty years since I last exchanged pleasantries with him. !!!!
