This book discusses the first horse to win the Triple Crown after decades of organizations trying. I actually did not watch the races this year, and I wish I would have. I enjoyed learning about the horse and all of the things behind the scenes that culminated in a history making race. I am pretty into pedigrees and such, as I have followed horse racing since I was about 10. I will say that it got a bit tedious reading about that, and if someone really wasn't that much of a fan, I can imagine it would be pretty boring in those parts. I also think the book could have been slightly shorter, but, overall, it was a decent book.
