Summary: For All Kentucky Derby Fans
Review: This book, one of five in a series, was written by the late, great Jim Bolus, "Mr. Kentucky Derby." He also frequently wrote articles in the annual Kentucky Derby souvenir magazine. Bolus knew EVERY conceivable bit of trivia about the race. He wrote about the horses, the history of the race, the people behind the scenes.

Included in this volume is a chapter on Affirmed and Alydar, a chapter on Col. Matt Winn, the man who made the Kentucky Derby what it is today, a chapter on black jockeys, a chapter on Ben Jones, and a wonderful chapter on the worst horses to run in the Derby.

EVERY fan should have this and the other four books.
