Reviews
...Harris writes about travel, food, family, races, and the progress of his thoroughbreds....one cant help but notice the parallel between his passion for racing and his ability to embrace lifes unknowns and play its odds with optimism....All in all, Harris memoir is the perfect read for those who would like a measured but honest view of what it is like to live with incurable cancer.
