He was a star: Lexington (by Kim Wickens)

An e book bargain today

#Lexington #NetGalley

This horse was named for the city where he was born but he became well known to those from many other areas. He was one of the greatest race horse EVER. Lexington also sired many other famous race horses.

This is the story of both a horse and his times. That time was the Civil War era. It is nonfiction that reads easily. Recommended to anyone interested in horses, history and/or a good story. Those who read Geraldine Brooks’s recent novel may also want to read this one. It is written by an author who understands horses.

Many thanks to Random House Publishing Group for this title. All opinions are my own.

I love to read, recommend books and open the world of reading to others. I tutor to ensure that the next generation of readers will know the joys of a good book because their reading skills have improved. I am an avid reader, especially of mysteries and fiction. I believe that two of the world's greatest inventions were the public library and eyeglasses!
