	CAREY, PETER. True History Of The Kelly Gang. Faber and Faber Limited, London: 2000. Hardcover with dustjacket. Good condition. In a dazzling act of ventriloquism, Peter Carey givs Ned kelly a voice so wild, passionate and original that it is impossible not to believe that the famous bushrangr himself is speaking from beyond the grave. True History of the Kelly Gang is the song of Australia, and it sings its protest in a voice at once crude and delicate, menacing and heart-wrenching. Carey gives us Ned Kelly as orphan, as Oedipus, as horse thief, farmer, bushranger, reformer, bank-robber, police-killer and, finally, as his country's beloved Robin Hood. By the time of his hanging in 1880 a whole country would seem to agree - and it is a measure of Peter Carey's achievemnt that he has not only made art from his country's great story but that he persuades us all to understand the true measure of that 'best bloody man.' ¶ 355 pages.

	CHRISTGAU, JOHN. The Gambler And The Bug Boy: 1939 Los Angeles And The Untold Story Of A Horse Racing Fix. University of Nebraska Press, Lincoln: 2007. Hardcover with dustjacket. Brand new book. Scandal on the Turf! the Los Angeles Times proclaimed. It was October 1940, a mere few months after Seabiscuit had won the Santa Anita Derby, and now this bombshell: Six Jockeys Admit Horse Races Fixed. The Gambler and the Bug Boy recounts this dark chapter in horse racing history. At its center is Bernard Big Mooney, a flashy L.A. bookmaker who began his seedy career by threatening young jockeys with death if they didn't pull their horses. His unwilling partner is Albert Siler, a callow, eighteen-year-old apprentice rider (a so-called bug boy) from eastern Oregon. John Christgau tells how Big Mooney manipulated this promising rider and how Siler tried to escape the gambler's criminal grip without ruining his career. Christgau's book gives all the harrowing details of the unraveling plot and the botched court case that followed which riveted the attention of the nation. Told in full for the first time, this story brings to light a little-known but important horse racing scandal. John Christgau is the author of several works, including The Origins of the Jumpshot: Eight Men Who Shook the World of Basketball, and Tricksters in the Madhouse: Lakers vs. Globetrotters, 1948, both available in Bison Books editions. Christgau is skilled at making memorable characters from his subjects. . . .

	CAREY, PETER. True History Of The Kelly Gang. Faber and Faber Limited, London: 2000. Hardcover with dustjacket. Good condition. In a dazzling act of ventriloquism, Peter Carey givs Ned kelly a voice so wild, passionate and original that it is impossible not to believe that the famous bushrangr himself is speaking from beyond the grave. True History of the Kelly Gang is the song of Australia, and it sings its protest in a voice at once crude and delicate, menacing and heart-wrenching. Carey gives us Ned Kelly as orphan, as Oedipus, as horse thief, farmer, bushranger, reformer, bank-robber, police-killer and, finally, as his country's beloved Robin Hood. By the time of his hanging in 1880 a whole country would seem to agree - and it is a measure of Peter Carey's achievemnt that he has not only made art from his country's great story but that he persuades us all to understand the true measure of that 'best bloody man.' ¶ 355 pages.

	CHRISTGAU, JOHN. The Gambler And The Bug Boy: 1939 Los Angeles And The Untold Story Of A Horse Racing Fix. University of Nebraska Press, Lincoln: 2007. Hardcover with dustjacket. Brand new book. Scandal on the Turf! the Los Angeles Times proclaimed. It was October 1940, a mere few months after Seabiscuit had won the Santa Anita Derby, and now this bombshell: Six Jockeys Admit Horse Races Fixed. The Gambler and the Bug Boy recounts this dark chapter in horse racing history. At its center is Bernard Big Mooney, a flashy L.A. bookmaker who began his seedy career by threatening young jockeys with death if they didn't pull their horses. His unwilling partner is Albert Siler, a callow, eighteen-year-old apprentice rider (a so-called bug boy) from eastern Oregon. John Christgau tells how Big Mooney manipulated this promising rider and how Siler tried to escape the gambler's criminal grip without ruining his career. Christgau's book gives all the harrowing details of the unraveling plot and the botched court case that followed which riveted the attention of the nation. Told in full for the first time, this story brings to light a little-known but important horse racing scandal. John Christgau is the author of several works, including The Origins of the Jumpshot: Eight Men Who Shook the World of Basketball, and Tricksters in the Madhouse: Lakers vs. Globetrotters, 1948, both available in Bison Books editions.
