Bruce The Bookie by Grantley Bernard and Lindsay Gaze is a nonfiction biography that explores the colourful world of Australian horse racing, organised crime and the author’s own experiences in Pentridge Prison. Written in an engaging, accessible style, the book blends memoir, true‑crime narrative and local history, making it appealing to readers from ages nine to adult.

The 182‑page paperback offers a lively look at the intersection of sport, crime and personal redemption, with insights into horse riding, bookmaking and life behind bars. Its blend of true stories and opinionated commentary provides both entertainment and a thoughtful perspective on Australian culture and justice.

Ideal for fans of biographies, true‑crime and leisure‑sport topics, Bruce The Bookie works well for young adults, adults and anyone interested in Australian history and the world of horse sports. The book is in paperback format, printed in English and originates from Australia.
