LEGENDS OF THE TURF (Volume 1) is award-winning South African
journalist Charl Pretorius' first book since 2006, a compilation of
updated personality profiles and articles from his popular column
of the same title that ran for over seven years in the Johannesburg
daily, The Citizen. Following the success of Horse Chestnut: The
Story Of A Legend (coauthored with Mike de Kock) and The Ten Habits
of Highly Effective Horseplayers, Pretorius' latest work is a
delightful journey into the annals of horseracing history. Sad and
nostalgic at times, Legends Of The Turf includes ten striking
chapters and a new bonus profile, documenting extensive research
and personal interviews with some of the industry's biggest names.
Enlightening, controversial and richly entertaining, Legends Of The
Turf is the result of one man's love for horseracing and his deep
admiration for its heroes, hailed or unsung. It's a collector's
piece for all individuals with an interest in the Sport Of Kings,
but its general theme of human trials and tribulations has
cross-over appeal for any reader who enjoys good story-telling.
