“Secretariat” by Raymond G. Woolfe Jr.

Description

Here is the behind-the-scenes story of Secretariat – Horse of the Century. This classic photo-essay book traces the history of the Meadow Stable foal that was to become the first Triple Crown champion in twenty-five years. The author, who was on personal terms with Secretariat’s owner, trainer, grooms, and jockey and who photographed “Big Red” throughout his career, gives us this enthralling intimate portrait – the triumphs and disasters – of Secretariat’s gallop to immortality.

Updated 50th Anniversary hard-cover edition – 224 pages filled with archival photography.
