Description
"Darwin would have been proud." I have never forgotten that phrase. Henny used it to introduce a piece about Freddie Spencer in 1985. The article that followed was witty and thought-provoking as well as respectful and informative. We had met at the Grand Prix motorcycle races and soon became friends as well as colleagues, sharing rental cars, hotel rooms, and scoops. We enjoyed a similar strain of dark humor, extreme pedantry, premature curmudgeonliness, and a deep mistrust of pretension and self-importance. Henny put this on paper with unique skill - an excoriating scourge of wrongdoers, reasoned admirer of heroes, faithful transcriber of an interviewee's every syllable, and a wise and articulate columnist. This complete collection of his Cycle News columns is a fine memorial, written with sincerity and laced with humor and truth. I think Darwin would have liked it too. Michael Scott
