Long Shot
Description
Combine Seabiscuit with Manic-throw in a touch of HBO's "Temple Grandin"-and you get Long Shot, a truly remarkable memoir by Sylvia Harris. A single mother of three, Harris was crippled by bipolar depression, until she discovered the miraculous healing and calming effect of horses-a revelation that ultimately enabled her to manage her illness, conquer the sexism of her field, and triumph as a champion jockey in the male-dominated world of horse racing. Long Shot is a fascinating, courageous, and ultimately redemptive true story.
