Can dreams really foretell the winners of the Kentucky Derby and the Super Bowl? One person who thinks so is author Hugh Mitchell, who for many years combined a career as newspaper reporter and copy editor with a passion for betting the horses based on dreams and psychic messages. In this memoir he traces the history of horse dreaming from an Irish journalist, a member of the House of Lords, to an English electrical engineer who was so successful that he named his house for a horse. Mitchell moves from Boston to the West Coast, which he finds more receptive to ESP research. He tries sports betting and is successful in three out of four major sports. While some researchers encourage his quest, the author himself worries about the ethics of using psychic ability for gambling. He sits in on healing circles in Berkeley and Boston and enrolls in a course on spiritual healing.
