Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book is a detailed historical account and analysis of the development of the thoroughbred horse in the United States. The author traces the importation of the first thoroughbreds to the American colonies in the 17th century, and follows their development through the 19th century, when the United States emerged as a major breeding ground for thoroughbreds. The book provides a comprehensive look at the bloodlines, breeding practices, and racing history of the American thoroughbred, and discusses the influence of the American thoroughbred on the development of the sport of horse racing worldwide. The author argues that the American thoroughbred is a unique breed, distinct from its British ancestors, and that it has played a major role in the development of the modern racing industry.
