Written by the world's best-selling equestrian author, the late Elwyn Hartley-Edwards, The Racehorse is the ultimate guide to the multi-billion dollar world of horse racing. The extraordinary history of racing is brought to life with stories and images of the world's greatest racehorses, from three foundation sires that led to the development of the 'racing machine', the British Thoroughbred, to the phenominal Eclipse and modern horse heroes such as Nijinsky, Red Rum and Desert Orchid. The contributions of the great jockeys are also explored, including living legend and 9-times derby winner Lestor Piggot and the incomparable racing 'superstar' Frankie Dettori.
