作者简介

菲利普-波特已经写了大约30本汽车书籍，两次赢得年度汽车书籍的蒙塔古奖杯。作为一个终生的赛车爱好者，这种热情主要是由斯特林-莫斯激发的。像50年代的许多年轻男孩一样，他是菲利普的英雄。因此，菲利普还在学校的时候就开始成功地参加了赛车运动。在经典跑车成为热潮之前，他就开始收购经典跑车，并拥有9600马力，是现存古老的E型车。这导致他在繁忙的商业生涯中做了一些汽车新闻工作。后来，他通过飞行热气球和飞艇来满足自己的竞争精神，在1991年的欧洲飞艇锦标赛上赢得了银牌。1992年，他成为有史以来在非洲驾驶飞艇的人。他是夏洛克-福尔摩斯协会的主席，也是杰罗姆-K-杰罗姆协会的积极成员。1997年，他和他的妻子朱莉成立了国际捷豹XK俱乐部，2004年，他们成立了捷豹E型车俱乐部。菲利普编辑了这两份月刊，斯特林爵士是XK俱乐部的赞助人。菲利普和朱莉住在伍斯特郡的一个都铎式农舍里，他们的办公室在一个相邻的茅草屋里。

Philip Porter has written about 30 motoring books, twice winning the Montagu Trophy for best motoring book of the year. A lifelong motor racing enthusiast, that enthusiasm was largely fired by Stirling Moss. Like so many young boys in the fifties, he was Philip's absolute hero. As a consequence, Philip began successfully competing in motor sport while still at school. He began acquiring classic sports cars long before it became a boom and owns 9600 HP, the oldest E-type in existence. This led to some motoring journalism among his busy business career. He later satisfied his competitive spirit with flying hot air balloons and airships, winning the silver medal at the 1991 European Airship Championships. In 1992 he became the first person ever to fly an airship in Africa. He is Chairman of the Sherlock Holmes Society and an active member of the Jerome K. Jerome Society. In 1997 he and his wife Julie founded the International Jaguar XK Club and in 2004 they started the Jaguar E-type Club. Philip edits both monthly magazines and Sir Stirling is Patron of the XK Club. Philip and Julie live in a Tudor farmhouse in Worcestershire and have their offices in an adjoining thatched barn.
