Days Like These is a romantic, colourful & heartfelt book by a writer whose pulse beats faster than most to the intoxicating rhythms of the racetrack. A personal & autobiographical account of one man's passionate love affair with horse racing & betting, it chronicles the origins & consequences of his obsession with the sport & his addiction to gambling, through good times & bad. By interweaving dramatic racing moments with key episodes from his own experiences, Reid shows how a love of 'the turf' can transform & intensify everyday life. The book celebrates some of the great racing personalities of the last 40 years
- from Sir Peter O' Sullevan & Lester Piggott to Jonjo O' Neill & Captain Ryan Price
- & focuses on some of the most legendary horses, including Arkle & Dawn Run. Beginning with a nail-biting account of a high-stakes gamble at the 2002 Cheltenham Festival & concluding with the jubilation of a 10-1 ante-post triumph at the following year's meeting, Reid evokes the people, the faces, the reek of fast food, & the potent adrenalin-charged atmosphere of the track. As well as being a vivid portrayal of horse-racing life, this is a book about fathers & sons, grandmothers & grandsons, & the sometimes painful path from childhood to adulthood. There is a memorable portrait of Reid's eccentric gambling-mad grandmother & a graphic description of the stifling horrors of conventional schooling & small town life in late '50s & early '60s Engl&, from which Reid escaped through horse racing. At times humorous, at times moving, Days Like These is destined to become a modern horse-racing classic in its own right.

During the War of Independence Frank Gallagher was interned in Mountjoy where he took part in a mass hunger-strike of republican prisoners demanding political status. Gallagher's remarkable diary reveals his internal conflict during the hunger strike in April 1920. He describes a 'double personality', one half bent on self-preservation & the other on sacrifice. On the tenth day, he almost surrendered, but what kept him resolute was shame before his fellow hunger strikers. ' If there were an honorable way of escape, I should be glad...I'm afraid to die, & I'm going to die because I'm afraid not to... The papers will call me a hero & a martyr...a miserable, frightened fool, who hadn't the courage not to die.' ...
