Bruce The Bookie, the gritty memoir by Grantley Bernard and Lindsay Gaze, lays bare the true story of a Melbourne bookmaker who mixed with horse-racing legends and underworld heavies. Set against the backdrop of Pentridge Prison and Australia’s colourful turf culture, this fast-paced biography takes readers from the track to the cells without slowing down.

The compact 182-page paperback is perfect for true-crime fans, local-history buffs or anyone curious about Australia’s racing underbelly. Young adults and adults alike will appreciate the candid voice and first-hand detail that bring the era, the horses and the high-stakes gamble to life.

This second-hand copy is in very good condition: crisp pages, no writing, no dog-ears, and a tight spine. It comes from a smoke-free home and is ready to slot straight onto your shelf or into a gift bag for a racing or true-crime enthusiast.
