  The author of Emperors of the Turf here offers a rollercoaster ride through the gambling world, from the seedy to the glamorous, and from riff-raff to royalty. Encompassing the atmosphere, comedy and madness of doing your money , he introduces readers to the rich cast of characters who have adorned the history of bookmaking and betting, and examines the codes and practices - legal and otherwise - that make up the betting industry.
