Derby
This detailed guide to the rich history of the streets of Derby is essential reading for every local resident. Renowned local historian Maxwell Craven has delved deep into his local knowledge to compile this fascinating guide, illustrated with over 150 pictures. The book is an authoritative, and entertaining, gazetteer of your street and the nearby streets you know so well. The simple facts are here - entries list the name of the street, its origin and former names, and the date it was laid out and built up. Roads and terraces that disappeared in the process of redevelopment are recalled. But the book also features information on notable people who once lived in these streets - some were nationally famous, some were well-known and well-respected locally, and a few were quite notorious in their time. Extraordinary events are also recorded as the archaeology of the streets is uncovered, and entries look back at the lost houses, businesses and factories ...

Derek Minter
Derek Minter started his racing career in 1953 on a BSA Gold Star. His early promise as an inexperienced youngster was very quickly fulfilled. After transferring to a couple of Nortons he soon became ‘King of Brands’, succeeding the famous John Surtees. After becoming double British Champion in 1958, two years later he became the first man to lap the Isle of Man TT circuit at over 100mph on a single cylinder bike. During 1962 he not only became triple British Champion, but also won the 250cc TT on a privately entered Honda-beating the might of the Honda works team in the process. Then in 1963 he rode for the Geoff Duke Scuderia Gilera squad and only a crash early in the season prevented him seriously challenging World Champion Mike Hailwood for the 500cc title. By 1965 he held the lap record for virtually every British short circuit. And by the time he retired at the end of 1967 had ridden for many manufactures, including MZ, Moto Morini, Bianchi, REG, EMC, Honda and Norton. Derek Minter: King of Brands is a fitting tribute to one of the world’s greatest ever motorcycle racing stars.
