Synopsis:
This intimate diary provides a rare opportunity to view a Thoroughbred nursery through the eyes of a family as they strive to breed, raise, and train winning racehorses. This updated edition includes an epilogue noting the farm's involvement with racing's superhero, Cigar, who was foaled and raised at Country Life Farm.
About the Author: Josh Pons is the third generation of his family to operate Country Life Farm near Bel Air, Maryland. Pons graduated with a degree in English from the University of Virginia. After college, he worked as a writer for The Blood-Horse magazine in Lexington, Kentucky. He later returned to school to earn a law degree from the University of Kentucky. Pons has earned two Eclipse Awards, racing's highest honor, one in 1981 for articles written in The Blood-Horse magazine and the other in 1992 for the first edition of Country Life Diary.
