Publisher's Synopsis

At the age of 20, Dennis Horn won his first English Rose the emblem of a national track champion. Throughout the 1930s he rapidly graduated from the rough and tumble of makeshift grass track racing at country fairs and gala sports days to assail the heights of British track cycling on the great urban cycling bastions of the time the hard-surfaced stadiums of London's Herne Hill and Manchester's Fallowfield and become the star of British track racing. Every year from 1931 to 1938 he was awarded the seasonlong Meredith Trophy to add to those legendary gold and silver cups. This book tells his story.
