This is a fun & easy read. It gives good insight into tb racing back then.

(How or why does Amazon sell books starting at 1 cent? Love it but don’t get it. Are they doing it hoping it will get you in the door then you will buy more?)[/QUOTE]
Nice sharing sonomacounty…!

The B. K… Beckwith book, Step and Go Together, although it has chapters on multiple breeds, contains some splendid chapters on specific T-Breds

I don’t know if anyone has mentioned but “Ruffian: burning from the start” is obviously about Ruffian, and also, the Funny Cide book is a really quick, interesting read.

This is the funny cide book I am talking about… there appears to be another one out as well
