A propos de cet article

Paperback edition of the highly-acclaimed biography of sporting icon Mick the Miller, the best known and best loved dog in British history. Mick's story amounts to a fairy tale. Bred by a gambling-mad priest, Mick emerged from the backwoods of Ireland to sweep all before him. As a youngster he survives a killer disease to win Derbies and break records at will; as a veteran he fights back from injury to bow out before 70,000 adoring fans with victory in the St Leger over a distance considered inappropriate for an ageing greyhound. Mick was a freak of nature. He won by cunning and brainpower more than raw speed. In retirement he capitalises upon this intelligence and becomes a role model for Red Rum and Desert Orchid by earning a living on the celebrity circuit, even meeting the King and Queen. But Mick goes one better, starring in his own feature film - which he steals from the 'real' actors. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.…
