Title: Normally sure footed D Francis shin splints in Field of 13.
Review: The first furlongs of Dick Francis' short stories' grab the reader's attention much as the announcer's "They're off" at the race track. However, unlike the novels he writes with stamina and heart enough to hold the reader's attention until the last lap, Francis' short stories are reminiscent of the quick burst of a grand horse who shin splints and falls short of the finish line leaving the fans saddened by the loss.
