Chasing a Dream: The Les Carlyon Collection gathers the celebrated Australian journalist’s best short pieces on horses, racing and the people who live for them. Carlyon’s sharp eye for detail and easy storytelling voice turn trackside snapshots into vivid memoir, perfect for lovers of equestrian sport and true Australian stories.

This 1988 first-edition hardcover arrives in very good shape, protected by its original dust jacket. Light shelf marks and a faint crease on the rear panel are the only signs of its vintage; inside, the pages are crisp, unmarked and free of foxing or smoke odour.

A compact treasury of racing history, biography and nostalgia, the book suits young adults discovering the turf as well as longtime fans seeking a reliable reference. Carlyon’s affection for horses and the Australian racing scene shines on every page, making this collection a thoughtful gift for anyone who keeps a pair of binoculars in the car just in case.
