About this product
Product Information
Black Caviar has captured the heart of a nation like no sporting figure since the days of Phar Lap and Don Bradman. This is greatness the likes of which is rarely seen. This is a tale that will not weary. This is the authorised story of the horse that couldn't be beaten, by acclaimed journalist and broadcaster Gerard Whateley. * 'His [Whatelely] is always a human voice, intelligent and relaxed, telling a story in prose that, like the horse he is writing about, lifts the spirit.' - Weekend Australian * 'An outstanding book of its kind.' - Sydney Morning Herald * 'this is a book about greatness. It's about a horse that transcended the track to become an Australian icon. Her story deserves to be told.' - the Canberra times * 'Yet another winner for the Black Caviar team.' - Courier Mail * 'Highly recommended.' - the Weekly Review * 'As an avid reader of sports and racing biographies, I must say this book rates up there with the best.' - Bendigo Advertiser Black Caviar is the biography of the Australian champion, written by acclaimed journalist and broadcaster Gerard Whateley, with a foreword by Peter Moody, BLACK CAVIAR this book documents the career of the racehorse who transcended the track to become an Australian icon. It begins with the entrancing story of champion trainer Peter Moody, a self-made man bred in the remote outback of Queensland, who came to select and guide the fastest horse the world had ever seen. Under Moody's patient and masterful guidance, the hulking injury-prone filly matured into a champion, idolized by a devoted following more akin to a rock band than a racehorse. Her gift is to defy the very nature of sport, making victory look both certain and effortless. But would her customary speed be enough to prevail at the most famous race track of all? At the climax of the tale, half a world away from her devoted nation and in front of the Queen, Black Caviar set out to conquer the world. With her invincible run and marauding dominance, Black Caviar has returned racing to the glory days of more than half a century past and secured a reputation that will echo for as long as horses are sent out to race.
