AP McCoy: My Autobiography

OFTEN autobiographies written while the protagonist’s career is ongoing can leave the reader short-changed. They are understandably and inevitably incomplete.

This autobiography does give an incomplete picture of the most successful jump jockey ever. But it does not any way leave the reader short-changed. Why? Because of its raw honesty and the insight AP McCoy gives into the single-minded obsession that drives him.
