Items related to A Different Kind of Life
On a spring afternoon in 1986, the racing car constructor Frank Williams crashed his car driving to Nice Airport. He suffered appalling injuries and was left severely disabled. For his wife Ginny it was the beginning of a nightmare in which her husband's life, and the lives of those around him, were changed for ever. This is her story. Set against the world of international motor racing, it is a story of one woman's struggle to overcome her fear and anger, and her fight to learn compassion and tolerance.

Review:
About the Author:
“One of the greatest and most spellbinding books you will read about the sport.” —Joe Saward (F1 journalist)
“One of the most powerful love stories you’ll ever read.” —Daily Mail
“It has acquired legendary status in motor racing, spoken of in awe, whenever mentioned...... If I ever write anything a fraction as memorable, I will die a happy woman ” —Kate Battersby London Evening Standard.
"Ginny Williams found a way to tell her remarkable story with a mixture of searing honesty and fine wit. A Different Kind of Life is as profound, as startling and as inspiring today as it was on its first appearance almost 30 years ago." —Richard Williams, former head sports writer for the Independent and The Guardian
Lady Virginia Williams was the mother of three three children and lived in London and Berkshire. She died in 2013. Her only daughter, Claire, a trailblazer like her mother, is now deputy team principal of the Williams Formula One racing team.
