I read this when I was a kid. I was a big fan of Walter Farley's The Black Stallion series so I read this too. Fiction but based on facts.

TheAromaofBooks I really liked this one when I was a kid! I loved The Black Stallion also, and my other favorite was The Horse Tamer. 5y
ElizaMarie I want to say that his remains are at rest at the Kentucky Horse Park in Lexington (that I was able to visit during one of my contracts). But if not then there is at least a memorial to him. Also I want to say the street is named after him. 5y

TheSpineView @ElizaMarie Interesting, I did not know that. I would like to go to the Kentucky Horse Park. You would think as an avid rider and lifelong lover of horses I would have. 😏 5y
Eggs I love horse stories! 🐎 5y
TheSpineView @Eggs Are you a horse person too? 5y
Scochrane26 @ElizaMarie @TheSpineView We have a lot of streets named after horses in Lexington. I have lived in the area all my life but haven‘t been on a Ky horse park tour since I was a kid. I really need to go again. I love going to Keeneland for horse racing, & we also have harness racing at another venue. When things are better, come visit! 5y
TheSpineView @Scochrane26 I will definitely visit when it is safe to travel again!💜🏇 5y
Scochrane26 @TheSpineView Maybe in October, that‘s when the fall meet at keeneland is. 5y
