on Henry Cecil
"Brough Scott, the author, has done an excellent job in capturing
this remarkable, but flawed, man." --Country Life magazine
on Henry Cecil

combines a truly extraordinary story one that no novelist would
have dared to submit with brilliant writing by an author who is
almost as knowledgeable about horses and the turf as his subject.
It is a just tribute to a man who deserves to be admired beyond
even his achievements." --The Spectator on Henry
Cecil
"It's a great story, well told." --Daily Racing Forum on
Henry Cecil
