You got me there. The ones who spring to mind are best forgotten.
I once got to shake Sir Edmund's hand as he handed me a book at the school prize-giving. Seemed a nice chap. I will have to second your choice.

It's called "Men Who Shaped the Future" by Egon Larsen. There is no way I would part with it.

Strangely i just searched the title and google did not want to know foinavon, then i added ego and still did not want to know so i went to ddg and the title hits the first spot. Then i went back to google with the same search and it came out on top but every result below was about something else.
Yes, that's it. Mine is an earlier edition than 1962 but the same fly cover although a bit tattier than in the photo.
She was a bugger for nicking booze when on a late ****.
