A Guide to the Classics or How to Pick the Derby Winner
Author: Guy Griffith (Trinity Hall 1920) and Michael Oakeshott (Caius 1920)
Publisher: Amphora Press
First published in 1936 when the authors were fellows at Caius, this light-hearted manual is a quirky mix of philosophy and horse racing.
Oakeshott went on to become one of the greatest political philosophers of the 20th Century. Republished this year with a foreword by journalist Peter Oborne (Christ's 1975) and preface by racing journalist Sean Magee (St Johns 1969), this gem is now available for fans of philosophy and racing.
