About this product

Product Information

William Richard Morris, later Viscount Nuffield, set up business as a cycle agent and manufacturer in Oxford, in 1893, at the age of sixteen. He was, through sheer hard work, to go on to make the Morris-Oxford car and set up the famous car works at Cowley, where many other Morris designs were manufactured. This is an account of his life and of his vision: 'the GBP100 car', a car the public could afford to buy. Leasor tells of this unusual and determined man's success, the millions he made and the millions he gave away.

Author Biography
Educated at Oriel College, Oxford, James Leasor was commissioned into the Royal Berkshire Regiment and posted to the 1st Lincolns in Burma and India, serving there for three and a half years in World War II. His wartime experiences inspired him to write such books as Boarding Party (filmed as The Sea Wolves) and The One that Got Away, the story of the sole German POW to escape from Allied hands. He later became a feature writer and foreign correspondent at the Daily Express. His books have been published in 19 countries.
