From humble origins in London's East End, this is the story of how Reg Fearman became a local hero with West Ham, the cockney giants of speedway, and went on to represent his country, first as a rider at the tender age of 17, and then as an international manager. This is a captivating mixture of sporting achievement, politics, and business and social history. It also looks at how speedway was resurrected from the doldrums of the late 1950s and dragged into a new "Jet Age" golden era, a time which paved the way for the heights that the sport has enjoyed in the 21st century as a global phenomenon. It includes a plethora of untold truths, revelations, and a rich treasure trove of photographs.
