### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ More history about horses, rating and just the history of that time
*by M***B on August 22, 2018*

I thought at first that this book was a little condensed and perhaps was for kids. Then I got into it and found that it added more about the Man's personality than some accounts have said. He is generally portrayed as almost as bad as his sire and grand sire in temper and nervousness. However, it is apparent that he liked his jockeys and they liked and trusted him. Mr. Riddle was not quite the guy who depresses all at the party as he seemed to be much more open about sharing Big Red and his farm with the public than with War Admiral but he was younger then. That was good to learn. The pictures are a delightful bonus. To stand a picture of Man o War next to one of Secretariat would start a new war on social media about which horse was greater as they both had magnificent conformation and you could see the determination in their eyes. Lastly there is an appendix at the end giving a history of the foundation sires of the American Thoroughbred breed as well as Man O War's lineage and the foals he sired with their racing history. Don't write this one off. This book is appealing to horse lovers and non horse lovers alike. It provides a good peak at the good and bad of horse racing.
