Yorkshire Made Me is about the pride of the county, its exceptional people and its
special places. What comes across most is that no matter how far Yorkshire men &
women go, in distance or stardom, from the place of their birth, they are forever
shaped by it, regularly return, and are intensely proud to belong.

In a very lively and readable style, Christine Goodier provides a who’s who

emphasises that the accused were merely flesh and blood, not demons,
arguing that they were poor, uneducated people who were at worst misguided.

The British motor cycle industry once stood 'at the top level of world production'.
BSA, Ariel, Norton, Triumph, Matchless and Vincent led the world in design, technology,
and popularity. After 1945, when the German industry failed to develop, British bikes
continued to be untouchable on the racetrack and in the showroom.
