Reviews:
"Joe Ryan's enthusiasm for the Tely 10 shines through in this history of one of Newfoundland's premier sporting events. Classic Tely champions like Pat Kelly, George Hillier, Paul McCloy and Nicola Will all take a bow in a book bursting with running personalities and race anecdotes."
- Bretton Loney, managing editor of The Telegram.

"Spirited, concise, alive with vivid descriptions. The ultimate Tely 10 reference book which chronicles the many individual stories of this popular race."
- Mike Boyle, long-time Tely 10 participant and former Race Director.

"...an outstanding contribution to the road-running community in Newfoundland."
- George Stanoev, Technical Director NLAA
