Richard Hammond and the Holy Grail". British Broadcasting Corporation. 20 January 2006 . Retrieved 22 August 2011. This book glosses over Hammond's childhood, early days in radio, and rise to the BBC. I would've appreciated a lot more detail here (I was hoping for some Jeremy Clarkson and James May tidbits); the main focus of this book is the crash, his recovery, and in a complete surprise to me (I mean, the book is called On The Edge: MY Story), wife Mindy's narration for almost half of the book about her experience caring for Hammond while he is in and out of consciousness following the accident, and during his rehabilitation.The recovery process is more prolonged, this part takes about half the book. There are some lovely scenes that portray the madness of it all, they should be funny, but because we have got to know Richard somehow, they are not. The escape from the hospital, the military style operation to move the family to somewhere quiet so that the recovery can continue should be a point of high humour - but we care, so it isn't. Mindy's passages about the family, and particularly the children make for difficult reading. They are well written, but hard to read, hard to get through, especially if you have children of your own, I suspect. An interesting insight into the trauma of and recovery from a brain injury from the viewpoint of the patient and his wife.

His wife, Mindy, then continues with a recount of her reactions and subsequent journey with Richard as he fights to regain his life and heal his brain.
