Reviews

a good book, well researched and written, simultaneously entertaining and informative, always asking sensible questions, Jack Dowie, Economic History Review. tremendously good at using isolated and bizarre snippets of evidence to illustrate the sport's characteristics!, James Walvin, New Society. Vamplew's pioneering study deserves an attentive reading as the first analytical approach to the subject, John K. Walton, Business History. a serious piece of research but never dull, Sunday Times. the only book about racing which I wished I'd done, J.A. Allen, The Pacemaker.
