Following nearly ten years of writing, the book is here. A story that became a blog. A blog that is now a book. This is the front cover design for Approaching The Final Furlong. A forty year journey around the racecourses of Great Britain featuring tales from the track and horse racing nostalgia. A father and son who share a love of horse racing and the son's quest to visit all the racecourses. A special edition book produced as an unusual eightieth birthday gift for the man who inspired these adventures. A story which began at Haydock Park in 1981 and is now approaching the final furlong!
