Person
Ken Hill's love of Morgans began when he married his wife, Janet. Her family were all Morgan enthusiasts, and the Hills were given their first Morgan by Janet's uncle - their now world-famous Morgan 4-4 Le Mans. In this car Ken and Janet competed in many European rallies, driving tests and concours events. He and Janet both became internationally accredited concours judges.
In his time Ken was a Post Office engineer, was in the RAF, and did long service as a dog handler with the Metropolitan Police, until a back injury forced him into early retirement. He then took up writing, and became a member of The Guild of Motoring Writers, having written several other titles about Morgans. See the others in this series, all published by Veloce.
