An Absolute Winner, From Gate-to-Wire,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Frankie: The Autobiography of Frankie Dettori (Paperback)
This is as honest an autobiography penned by a major sports figure in quite a long time. As a matter of fact, a reader does not have to be well-versed in the nuances of the "Sport of Kings" to appreciate the oftentimes wild ride chronicled by Dettori.
A fascinating aspect is how Dettori approaches his race against a variety of demons - which lurks in the shadows for any athlete - and how he pulled himself from the brink of destroying a promising career. There are no pity parties of finger-pointing and the lessons learned by Dettori are valuable to anyone who faces adversity in any walk of life. Ultimately, though, it's his triumphs on tracks throughout the world which brings his life into a grand perspective. Dettori writes like he rides, as a special champion, from gate-to-wire. |
