Or at least that's what I found with Longshot . I picked up a hardcover copy in excellent condition at a used bookstore for $1.00 with the intention to give it away since I had already read it. Well eighteen months later it's still in my collection as I discovered while straightening my bookshelves. "Why isn't this book on the Dick Francis page?" I asked myself. Per usual, I started to thumb through it. Next thing, I'm leaving the bookcase a mess and shutting down my computer to curl up on the couch. I had a vague notion that I remembered what happened, but it's a well worded good story in between the action so I kept reading until the end.

@import url("/includes/styles/mysterynet.css"); Dick Francis' Horse Racing Thriller Mysteries Profile at MysteryNet.com: "Never Forgetting the Falls" by J. Madison Davis Thriller writer Dick Francis brings the lessons learned in his horse-racing career to his novels. Dick Francis Discuss Dick Francis Thrillers Buy Dick Francis Horse-racing Mysteries Mystery Books ... True Crime "I waited for things to settle: chest heaving, bones still rattling from the bang... No harm done. Nothing broken. Just another fall.", Reflex Every year since 1962, Dick Francis has published another novel which demonstrates how a man should live. Fate, luck, thugs, or simply unfavorable circumstances knock his heroes down and it hurts. Momentarily rattled, they nonetheless stand up, grit their teeth, and move on. Scarred, but unbowed, never complaining. It's just another fall. No harm done. Books reflect their authors, of course, but the personality and presence of Richard Stanley Francis is on every page of his books. He .has been knocked down and he has gotten up, again and again. Born in Wales, he grew up wanting to be a jockey. Unfortunately, he grew up too much and had to become a steeplechaser, a profession in which longer legs are an advantage. About the time he should have launched his career, he worked for his father to keep the family stables solvent. Then World War II intervened. He found himself repairing airplanes, then flying them. By the time the war was over, he was past the usual beginning age for a jockey, but began nonetheless.

BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH Francis Brisbane Dick, the youngest of four sons of William Dick (1778-1831) and Margaret Brisbane, was born in the Medical Hall of the University of Pennsylvania in 1814. His parents lived in Renfrew, Scotland until 1813, when they immigrated to Philadelphia. Four children accompanied them. Two more were born in Philadelphia. William Dick started a family tradition when he became Janitor for the Medical Department at Penn in 1813. He continued for nearly thirty years, until his death in 1831. Two of his four sons, Francis and "Major" Frederick (1805-1875), served the university in this capacity. In the early and mid 19th century, the Janitor at Penn performed duties not usually associated with this title today. The Janitor was responsible for many non-Academic services at the university, including tasks that are currently performed by Facilities Services, the Bursar's Office, and the Office of University Life. William Dick and his descendants were not only in charge of maintenance and utilities, but also of collecting tuition money from students, managing the records related to tuition payments, and some aspects of student discipline.

Current Selling Prices MODERN FIRST EDITION /THRILLER 'For millionaire jockey Alan York, winning is a bonus. For Joe Nantwich, victory means no cushy backhanders; and for Bill Davidson, front running on strongly fancied Admiral, triumph is an imposter. It means murder - his own. Turning private detective, York uses Joe's underworld connections to go on the trail of the killers - only to draw a series of blanks. But when ambushed by a gang of vicious thugs, he picks up some clues along with his cuts and bruises. Bill's murder begings to make more sense. Until York finds himself in hospital, without a memory.' This isn't the cosy world of Poirot and Marple, there is often some pretty nasty violence, people get injured physically and mentally and there is as good an assortment of villainous psychopaths and sociopaths as you'd meet any afternoon at Haydock Park. The books are also well researched without shoving the work in your face as a lesser writer like Ian Mcewan might do (I'm thinking of the surgery in 'Saturday'.) The research was done by his wife and partner Mary Margaret Brenchley who sadly died in 2000. VALUE?

Smith Pilot Ron McNair Mission Specialist Ellison Onizuka Mission Specialist Judy Resnik Mission Specialist Gregory Jarvis Payload Specialist Christa McAuliffe Teacher in Space participant Francis R. Scobee Commander Dick Scobee was selected as an astronaut candidate in January 1978, along with fellow Challenger crew members El Onizuka, Ron McNair, and Judy Resnik. After completing a one-year training and evaluation period, he qualified for future shuttle missions as a pilot. His first mission was the April 1984 flight of the Challenger STS 41-C, launched from Kennedy Space Center in Florida. Scobee was pilot and second in command. The mission saw the successful retrieval, on board repair and redeployment of the damaged Solar Maximum Satellite, as well as flight testing of the Manned Maneuvering Units. He also served an instructor pilot on the NASA/Boeing 747 shuttle carrier aircraft. In an interview, Dick recalled that his fascination with airplanes began early. He said, "Ever since I was a little kid, I had been enamored of airplanes, and that's why I ended up working on them. They generally fascinated the heck out of me, and I'd never done any flying. I used to go out to the airport and watch them fly. i still like airplanes, and I still go to airports and do that."
