An easy read on the life of a female rally driver who I admittedly hadn’t heard of before purchasing this book. I thought the book was okay. Smith had some adventurous stories to tell, and the chapters on the rally’s in Kenya, Mexico and Australia were particularly enjoyable. Unfortunately the rest of the book didn’t flow well into each other at all - it felt like random passages put together. Overall, Driven was mediocre writing wise, but gave fascinating insights into the experiences of a female rally driver in the sixties and seventies.
