Reviews
"Finding the meaning of life with a Craftsman wrench is the idea behind this book, but that doesn't get across just how entertaining it is. The writing is crisp, the narrative stays lively with a series of deliberate digressions and blended segues, and there's plenty here for everyone."-- Library Journal " The Gold-Plated Porsche is the highly entertaining story of someone who seems to have been playing while everybody else was at work."--FlyingMag.com "Your Porsche book is magic. If on picking this up a reader expects a how-to manual on restoring a Porsche 911, he will be disappointed because all you give him is a how-to manual on life. The clear and colorful way you explain difficult and convoluted mechanical functions is pure John McPhee at his best. Your experiences - with cars, as a merchant seaman, as an EMS driver, building airplanes - come together in this glorious tale. Thank you for sharing it."-- AutoWeek ". . . tinkering, in this memoir, is a vehicle itself, a way to take the reader on a tour of Wilkinson's life in the driver's seat... all retold at a fast clip and with plenty of pep."-- Condé Nast Traveler, "Finding the meaning of life with a Craftsman wrench is the idea behind this book, but that doesn't get across just how entertaining it is.
