Kelly Sutherland - King of the Chucks
320 pages, cool pictures - $30.00
World Champion. Cowboy. Entrepreneur. Scoundrel. Mentor. Kelly
Sutherland is all these and more. Ultimately, he is the supreme champion
in chuckwagon racing, a professional sport unique to western Canada.
Arguably, he is Canada's toughest competitor ever in any sport.
Look up "tough" in the dictionary, and you might find Kelly Sutherland's
photo. After racing for five decades, this confident and cocksure chuckwagon
driver has won more World Championships, more Calgary
Stampede Championships and more races than anyone on the planet!
And as passionate about wagon racing, his horses and his family that he is,
there is still a shadow of softness behind Kelly Sutherland's steely-eyed glare.
For those who follow chuckwagon racing, Sutherland's name is spoken
with reverence, spite and respect. But for those new to the sport, this
is a glimpse into a leader with remarkable tenacity and formidable
fierceness. A man who, at the peak of his career, found himself sinking
into the bottom of a bottle. A man who inspires the desire to win in both
men and horses.
