Synopsis

By the author of Sporting Lives , this is a further collection of the author's articles on sport taken from The Daily Telegraph . It contains pieces on football, golf, cricket, rugby, tennis, rowing and motor racing. It describes sporting championships and the travelling freak show that surrounds the teenage superstars - Jennifer Capriati or newcomer Martina Hingis - and deprives them of a childhood. It profiles many of the greatest sporting figures of our times, from Fred Perry, Jackie Stewart, George Best and Denis Compton to Nick Faldo, Mike Atherton, Steve Redgrave and Rory Underwood.
