Life at the Limit - Graham Hill

First Edition Autobiography from Graham Hill, 1969. Found in a Berwick bookshop for £3.50.
Difficult to value with the sleeve in poor condition but could be £50 ish. Shame its not signed as would be about £200. It is a good read so far so am happy to have added it to my collection.

June Swell


Sat outside, surprisingly decent swell has turned up. Not long period but the waves are rolling in overhead and I had to paddle out by the rocks to get out. Caught a couple of waves already and find myself all alone in the line up scouting about looking for the next wave. Here comes a lump, feel a bit deep but I turn and go – quick paddle – its pitching – might be in trouble – nope - up and flying backhand down the line, bring it off the bottom, then off the top…happy days.
