Original titleEtched in Stone: Thoroughbred Memorials
A fascinating historical tour of 475 Thoroughbred memorials commemorating legendary Thoroughbred racehorses buried in Central Kentucky. The memorials, dating from the 1870s to present day, range from simple markers to elaborate and ornate cemeteries. Zeh brings to life the names carved in granite, from Domino, the great 19th Century champion, to Secretariat and Mr. Prospector. Richly illustrated with over 100 photographs.
