Did you know America had a racehorse breed 60 years before the English Thoroughbred existed and 100 years before the Thoroughbred got here?

Or that this breed could race in both sprint and stamina contests at the pace and the gallop? Or that it excelled as a saddle horse, hunt horse as well as at racing?

Or that this early breed is the athletic base of all America's best light horse breeds?

The reason you don't know of it is that its history and record was intentionally hidden from us.

This book is a compilation and commentary on the history of America's first light horse breed, and the movement launched to eliminate it from the competitions it excelled at, and to replace it and its memory with another breed. The historical evidence is presented in time blocks and provides the contemporary accounts of this horse in each era in chronological order so that the reader may trace it and its descendant breeds through time to the present day.
