King of the Road is the Autobiography of an Israeli Scientist and a World Record-Holding Race Walker. "One senses the anguish and the excitement, the sheer nerve and determination of a man who took on the Israeli athletic establishment and did it all, his way. He manifests the courage to push beyond his own limits and the reader will experience the anguish and the exuberance of the life that Ladany has led. He earned my admiration, my respect and my gratitude. He will earn yours as well." --Michael Berenbaum, Executive Editor, Encyclopaedia Judaica "From triumph to tragedy this personal firsthand look into the past is a good reminder as we look forward into the future and where we go now." --Mark Spitz, winner of 7 gold medals (swimming) at the Munich Olympic Games, the highest ever won at a single Olympic game "Packed with insider info on the life of a long-distance athlete and interesting anecdotes from the author s life, Shaul Ladany s King of the Road will appeal to anyone who has ever reached for a goal in life and pushed to be the best. This book will inspire you!" --Tal Brody, former Captain, Maccabi Tel Aviv basketball team; first sportsman to receive the Israel Prize
