Paul Carberry's Autobiography: One Hell of A Ride

PAUL CARBERRY is one of greatest jockeys the world has ever seen. But that is only part of his amazing life story.

Completely fearless and without equal on a horse, Paul tackles everyday life in much the same manner. Coming from one of Ireland's leading 'racing families, Carberrys unique riding style and natural talent have set him aside from his rivals, and is widely regarded as the most naturallygifted horseman that this country has ever produced.

A Grand National winner with Bobbyjo in1999, Paul was also two time Champion Jockey and has amassed over 1,600 winners in a professional career spanning over 20 years.

But this book is about much more than this.

Paul Carberry has been no angel, and he refuses to hide from any of this. He is brutally honest and frank when tackling the issues that have mapped his life.

From the highs at the racecourse, Paul also talks candidly about his struggle with alcohol, his failed breath tests, his injuries and his endless suspensions. He also discusses the circumstances which led to his sentencing to prison for setting fire aboard an aircraft in 2005.

Here lies Paul Carberry: Gifted, fearless.. and brutally honest.
