Brough Scott has covered racing for many years, broadcasting for ITV and Channel 4, as well as co-founding the Racing Post. Voted Best Racing Journalist of the Year 2010, he has written numerous books, including Of Horses and Heroes and Galloper Jack.
"By far the best book on racing I have ever read. It 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." --Spectator
"Scott's achievement has been to explain Cecil's genius and
charisma without shying away from the more complex issues. The
result is a wonderfully rounded portrait of one of the most
endearing figures in British sport." --Sunday Times
"Scott's tour of Cecil's inner self is as fascinating as it is
illuminating." --Daily Telegraph
