Book excerpt: From a New York Times–bestselling “master of crime fiction and equine thrills,” a jockey investigates the source of the rumors threatening his career (Newsday). Dick Francis, Edgar Award–winning master of mystery and suspense, takes you into the thrilling world of horse racing. Rob Finn is a talented young jockey on the rise, though nothing can help him rise above the feeling that he is a misfit in his family of accomplished musicians. Especially when Rob’s racing career takes a downturn and rumors begin to run rampant that he has lost his nerve. But when he takes it upon himself to investigate the source of the stories, he discovers that his troubling losing streak is caused not by a lack of skill or confidence, but something far more sinister. . . . Praise for the writing of Dick Francis: “Dick Francis is a wonder.” —Cleveland Plain Dealer “Few things are more convincing than Dick Francis at a full gallop.” —Chicago Tribune “Few match Francis for dangerous flights of fancy and pure inventive menace.” —Boston Herald “[Francis] has the uncanny ability to turn out simply plotted yet charmingly addictive mysteries.” —The Wall Street Journal “Francis is a genius.” —Los Angeles Times “Nobody executes the whodunit formula better.” —Chicago Sun-Times “A rare and magical talent . . . who never writes the same story twice.” —The San Diego Union-Tribune

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This is a bad idea, Sam," Timothy began, pulling the cinch tight under Lucifer's belly. "He's not your horse, and if anything happens to him . . ." "I don't need your help, mule man." Sam spit in the dirt. "Sure." Timothy stepped away from the magnificent horse and walked to Opal. Taking a handful of mane in his hand, he swung up on her back easily. "Let's get going, then." Sam gulped. "Come on, guys," he said, motioning his friends to take the reins as Lucifer tossed his head and rolled his eyes. In a small town in South Carolina, a young boy named Timothy has big dreams. Working in a stable with horses, Timothy watches the amazing steeplechase races that occur every summer, and hopes to one day be a part of them. Until then, he has his mule, Opal, to imagine with. But one day, a bet is placed, and Timothy and Opal have to prove that even a mule can compete like a racehorse. With a week to prepare and train, they have an uphill battle-sometimes literally-and it becomes more than a simple race against Timothy's bully.

Book excerpt: Each spring, thousands of spectators clamber onto hillsides with picnics and binoculars to watch steeplechase racing, a fast-paced equine sport born out of the fundamentals of fox hunting. Since 1894, when the first Maryland Hunt Cup was run, the month of April has been synonymous with steeplechase racing. Starting with the Elkridge-Harford Hunt races and continuing with the National Steeplechase Association– sanctioned “Big Three” races—the My Lady’s Manor, Grand National, and Maryland Hunt Cup—the countryside buzzes with horses and fans every Saturday throughout the month. Images of America: Maryland Steeplechasing traces the history of Maryland’s other triple crown of racing, bringing together images of Maryland’s three most-coveted races for the first time in one volume.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inspired by the Henry Taylor poem of the same name, Flying Change is the true story of a man changing strides and leaving the comforts and security of middle-age life to reenter the hazardous and highly competitive world of steeplechasing. After a youthful career begun under the tutelage of his father, legendary steeplechase jockey A. P. "Paddy" Smithwick, he gave up riding to become a newspaper editor, a Chesapeake Bay waterman, a teacher of English and literature, and a father. But the one-time jockey could not leave the sport he so loved. At forty-six, he pushed himself back into shape for competitive racing and set about trying to find a horse to ride in the most challenging of timber races, the Maryland Hunt Cup. From the rolling hills of Maryland horse country, Smithwick issues a movingly written call to those of us trapped in increasingly sedentary, digital lives to get up and go outdoors and let the senses play, to feel a cold rain on your shoulders and sit in front of a warm fire, to smell hay and grass and live in the beauty of spring dawns and brilliant autumn sunsets.

This book was released on 2013-04-30 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The moving story of a tough little horse, a gifted boy, and a woman ahead of her time. The youngest jockey, the smallest horse, and an unconventional heiress who disliked publicizing herself. Together, near Liverpool, England, they made a leap of faith on a spring day in 1938: overriding the jockey's father, trusting the boy and the horse that the British nicknamed the "American pony" to handle a race course that newspapers called "Suicide Lane." There, Battleship might become the first American racer to win England's monumental, century-old Grand National steeplechase. His rider, Great Britain's Bruce Hobbs, was only 17 years old. Hobbs started life with an advantage: his father, Reginald, was a superb professional horseman. But Reg Hobbs also made extreme demands, putting Bruce in situations that horrified the boy's mother and sometimes terrified the child. Bruce had to decide just how brave he could stand to be. On the other side of the Atlantic, the enigmatic Marion duPont grew up at the estate now known as James Madison's Montpelier—the refuge of America's "Father of the Constitution." Rejecting her chance to be a debutante, denied a corporate role because of her gender, Marion chose a pursuit where horses spoke for her. Taking on the world's toughest race, she would leave her film star husband, Randolph Scott, a continent away and be pulled beyond her own control. With its reach from Lindbergh's transatlantic flight to Cary Grant's Hollywood, Battleship is an epic tale of testing your true worth.
