A Guide to the Classics, or How to Pick the Derby Winner
Published by Faber and Faber Ltd, 1936
First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Included. 1st Edition. An uncommon copy of Michael Oakeshott's (1901-1990) only non-academic published work, which offers a studied analysis on-of all things-how to successfully bet on horse racing. Co-authored with Oakeshott's Cambridge colleague, Guy T. Griffith, A Guide to the Classics, or How to Pick the Derby Winner analyzes how to successfully evaluate and reduce the field to a handful of likely contenders. The dust jacket to this interesting work provides that "[t]his is not just a joke but a serious study of an enthralling problem. The authors explain how to draw commonsense conclusions from the facts of Breeding and Form, and so reduce the list of possible winners to three or four." The book's final chapter "brings together all the considerations which must be taken into account in picking the winner, and ends with two fully worked out examples-1933 and 1936." Oakeshott, the influential conservative scholar and author of Rationalism in Politics and Other Essays, here marshals his towering intellect to help horse racing enthusiasts realize their dreams at the track. A quirky and interesting work by one of the twentieth century's greatest political thinkers-and a work that is uncommon in this condition. Octavo. Publisher's cloth in original dust jacket (not price-clipped). One-inch closed tear to top of front dust jacket, one-inch chip to top of rear dust jacket and head of spine, and chip to bottom spine, else minor edgewear and smudging to dust jacket. Minor spotting to pastedowns and free endpapers. Near-fine in very good dust jacket.

Add to basketSmall 8vo: 136 pp., occasional pencilled notes, some spotting mainly to first and last few leaves. Original brown cloth, gilt lettering to spine, a little rubbed. First edition. Rare. 'In this book we propose to review again the problem involved in picking the winner of the Derby and to reconsider the principles upon which this problem may at the present time be solved successfully. . The Derby winner cannot be picked often without the use of intelligence, and we can provide no ready-made substitute for an intelligent consideration of the race and the field. Nevertheless, we do not suggest that our way of dealing with the subject is scientific. Our method is that of commonsense .' - from the introduction. 'Perhaps too it called for some courage to publish in 1936 a book written jointly with a colleague, Guy Griffith, entitled A Guide to the Classics or How to Pick a Derby Winner. Though written with dry urbanity, this was a serious effort to 'offer a brief and businesslike account of the rational principles upon which we believe a winning selection may be based.' Fear of raised eyebrows did not deter Oakeshott from agreeing to a second edition [entitled 'A New Guide to the Derby'] of this light-hearted work in 1947.' From the obituary by Nevil Johnson. Oakeshott (1901-1990), Professor of Political Science, was educated at and was later a fellow at Cambridge, was Professor at the LSE from 1951-68, also a member of the Fabian Society; he published numerous books and articles, and this work is his only non-academic publication.
