Book Jeremy Clarkson Published in: 1999 Publisher: Penguin Group Language: English Jeremy Clarkson, it has to be said, sometimes finds the world a maddening place. And nowhere more so than from behind the wheel of a car, where you can see any number of people acting like lunatics while in control (or not) of a ton of metal. In Born to be Riled, Clarkson takes a look at the world through his windscreeen, shakes his head at what he seesand then puts the boot in. Among other things, he explains:why Surrey is worse than Waleshow crossing your legs in America can lead to arrestthe reason cable TV salesmen must be punchedthat divorce can be blamed on the birth of Jesus Raving politicians, pointless celebrities, ridiculouspersonalitiesand the Germans all get it in the neck, together with the stupid, the daft and ludicrous in a tour de force of comic writing guaranteed to have Clarksons postman wheezing under sackfuls of letters from the easily offended.
