3.0 out of 5 stars Four-Minute mile...slow? April 17 2002
By C. Bailey
Format:Paperback
A great story about a great runner! You keep reading only wishing that he had put more about his career. It reads really slow and much of the book could be skipped over. I recommend the book if you are looking for a background of Bannister starting from birth. I was looking for something about his running.

4.0 out of 5 stars True Perspective on Life & Running Jan 25 2002
By A Customer
Format:Paperback
Roger Bannister sets about telling the story of his historic record 4 minute mile but in the process he reveals that there is more to life than just running. This book is quite unlike most running books I have read in that Bannister strives to keep things in perspective amid spectacular and historic events. It could just be his British demeanor, but I found narrative rather enjoying.

5.0 out of 5 stars Bannister was the epitome of a great man. Sep 15 1998
By A Customer
Format:Paperback
Bannister not only was the greatest runner of his time, he also was a incredibly thinking and balanced man. He was an amatuer because he understood running was only a means to a better life.
