This is a great book written at pretty much the perfect time. This book concludes at the end of 2007, the season before Hamilton becomes world champion. Knowing now that he accomplishes his dream of becomming WC in 2008 makes reading this book all the more interesting. I'm not sure Lewis would have been able to capture the same passion and determination if he decided to wait a couple of years to publish a biography. As a big Hamilton fan, I found it very entertaining to read the stories of his youth, family, early racing career, and dedication to McLaren Mercedes. This is great background reading for anyone that follows Lewis or F1 in general.
