McIlvanney on Horseracing
By Hugh McIlvanney
I feel a bit like Alan Partridge nominating his favourite Beatles album as 'The Best of The Beatles,' mainly because the racing book I enjoyed most is McIlvanney on Horseracing.
Wide-ranging and written by the most absorbing eye witness in history, it has everything. I've read a few autobiographies and enjoyed some of them but that has always been tempered by the knowledge that they've been ghost-written. McIlvanney is the best.
