The Grand National is the most famous horse race in the world. Officially first run in 1839 it is now watched in 140 countries on television with viewing figures of more than 500 million. Run in early April at Aintree, Liverpool, this spectacular steeplechase over 30 fearsome fences and four and a half miles has had a history filled with drama. In the first running a Captain Becher fell into the ditch which now bears his name. In 1956 the Queen Mother's Devon Loch looked set to win, ridden by future thriller writer Dick Francis in the saddle, only to belly flop, legs akimbo, yards from the line. In 1967 there was a pile- up at the fence before the Canal Turn allowing 100/1 outsider Foinavon to come through to win. In the 1970s, when the future of the race looked seriously in doubt, the three amazing wins by Red Rum re-engaged the public, and who can forget the emotional victory of cancer survivor Bob Champion and Aldaniti in 1981? The 'National has thrown up some great characters such as the Spanish nobleman the Duke of Albuquerque and English racing journalist Lord Oaksey. In the history of the race, the largest number of runners was an enormous field of 66 and the fewest to finish was just two. In 1993 a starting fiasco resulted in the race being declared null and void and, only four years later, it was postponed by a bomb scare and was run on the following Monday. Little Book of the Grand National tells all these tales, illustrated with great contemporary pictures and photographs.

Join Faye "Not A Horse Girl" Taylor for a fresh perspective of the horse racing world of Good Things Come - taking you from Canada's Queen's Plate, to the morning of the final jewel of the Canadian Triple Crown, with regular appearances from the characters you loved in Good Things Come. Faye Taylor grew up in the world of Thoroughbred horse racing, though she's afraid of the animals herself. She stays in the background, balancing the cost of feed against the horses' earnings (or lack thereof), and couldn't handicap a race to save her life. It's provided her with a home - albeit not the most stable one - and a steady supply of non-relationships, which is just the kind she likes. Now she's trying to get over the jockey she made the mistake of falling for, she's losing her biggest client, and the Thoroughbred farm she and her brother inherited isn't having a stellar year. The racing world that's given her the life she's come to know is looking even less stable than usual. Then along comes Will Callaghan. He's both too tall, and too nice - but he'll make a fine reset button for the disaster that is currently her life. Faye is sure she can keep Will where she wants him. She'll enjoy his part-time band, his part-time cat, his baking, and other useful skills. She's not looking to get attached. But all the little things are starting to add up into something more. Love is right in front of her -and he's got pastry. ♥ Bonus - includes recipes for Butter Tarts and Butter Tart Squares, because that kind of Canadian goodness needs to be shared. ♥
