Come On Seabiscuit!
Who would have believed that a knobby-kneed little colt called Seabiscuit whould beome of of the most celebrated racehorses of all time?
Although Seabiscuit was the grandson of the legendary Man O'War, he was neither handsome nor graceful. His head was too big, his legs were tooshort, and his gallop was awkward. During the depths of the Great Depression, Seabiscuit's wins against incredible odds uplifted the hearts of Americans from the streets to the White House.
Ralph Moody recounts the thrilling tale of the plucky horse who refused to quit, the down-on-his-luck jockey who didn't let horrendous accidents keep him out of the saddle, and the taciturn trainer who brought out the best in both. This is a real treasure for horse and animal lovers of all ages and places.
