Great book. Getting harder to find these days.
An aside on Neville.
About 35 years ago a bunch of us (including Neville) were having a beer after a run and were talking "Running Stuff".
Then a couple of us asked Neville "Who was the hardest to run against, Snell or Elliot., and who did he rate the better".
Neville said they were both as tough as nails and he said although he would give the edge to Snell it would be only in certain situations.
He said when you ran against Herb Elliot he displayed this awesome ability to just "Run away" from you. He just took 2 or 3 metres at a time. He just "eased away" and you just could not go with him.
He said Snell would be with you one second and 20 meters down the track the next. He just "exploded" away.
Neville felt in a slow run race that Snell would beat Elliot but if the pace was on from the gun he said he would not like to put money on the result.
