From the Publisher:
When it comes to describing sporting icons, the word 'legend' is seriously overused. But in the case of Greyhound-training phenomenon Charlie Lister, it hardly does him justice. Lister is simply the most successful trainer of his and any other era, with an amazing record of big-race sucesses from the handful of dogs he handles at his Nottinghamshire base. And, like a good wine, he gets better with age. Now in his 60s, he won the 2003 British Trainer Championship by a country mile, in the process winning the Greyhound Derby - the richest and most sought-after prize of all - for the fourth time in seven years.
In Charlie Lister on Greyhounds author Julia Barnes offers far more than a celebration of Lister's unique achievements. She provides a candid portrait of the man and the methods that have taken him to the top. Charlie Lister on Greyhound, is the new 'bible' for British Greyhound trainers and fans.
