Macmillan, Toronto, 1989, 1^st.  ISBN 0-7715-9206-X.  Hard cover, 270 pages including Postscript and Index.  Very good; red cloth with black lettering on spine printed upside down; binding sound with headbands.  Dust jacket with price intact shows a bit of edge wear, scrape at middle front gutter, age-toning with some creases.  Book interior clean and unmarked; two black & white photo plate sections.  ‘… the amazing story of Frank Mrazek and his lifelong dedication to motorcycle racing.  … his childhood and teenage years in Brno, Czechoslovakia; his clashes with his equally strong-willed father; his years as an army private and chauffeur to an eccentric Russian general; his unorthodox courtship and marriage to Jana Docekalova-Mrazekova, an Olympic and five-time champion figure-skater; and, finally, their impulsive joint defection to Canada in 1965.  Through the entire story runs the theme that has always mattered to Frank more than breathing – racing.’ (from front flap)
