When I answered before, I forgot the obvious reply -- Hillenbrand's
Seabiscuit.
I read both of Hillenbrand's books. And
Seabiscuit, in my opinion was better -- even though I am not particularly interested in horses, and not at all a sports fan.
Hillenbrand is an excellent writer, but, in addition, she's a real expert on horse-racing. I trust her there.
I recommend
Unbroken. And yet, much of what's in
Unbroken is just one person's memory of a time long ago. Much is undoubtedly true, but some of it is literally unbelievable. See:
Zamperini’s War.
