American Turf Register And Sporting Magazine. A mid- to late-19th-century periodical issue that gathers horse racing reports, breeding pedigrees, hunting and shooting guidance, travelogue notes from the American West, and natural-history sketches. It blends technical instruction, race results, and personal correspondence with observational essays. The mosaic includes sections on natural history and sport, such as The Cock of the Wood, On Charging and Trying Guns, Scenes and Things in the West, The Fish-Pond at Logan, A Race - A Race, and extensive Racing Calendars, Blooded stock and pedigrees, and an Index and pedigree material. Local summaries describe cockfighting rules, Adventures in the Rocky Mountains, Bloodstock and pedigrees, Importation of Arabian horses, Sports of the Turf in America, and various race reports. The tone is informative and celebratory of turf life, mixing breeding science with field storytelling, travel writing, and sport journalism. Together these items present a historical snapshot of 19th-century turf culture, its racing networks, breeding priorities, technical innovations, and the social world surrounding horse racing.
