Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from History of the British Turf, Vol. 1 of 2: From the Earliest Times to the Present Day
The object I have steadily had in view in writing this work has been to collect all the most interesting facts connected with the Turf, to give the pedigrees Of some of the best horses, short historical notices of those locali ties famous in connection with the sport, and biographical sketches of the principal actors in its varied scenes, from its earliest period to the present day.
