About this title

Synopsis

In racing, how and where to start, who to turn to for advice, and how much it costs, are questions without easy answers. Cot Campbell of Dogwood Stable demystifies the Thoroughbred ownership process through a unique combination of how-to guide and autobiography. Indispensable for newcomers to the business and not to be missed by those already in it.

About the Author

W. Cothran Campbell, a former advertising executive, began Thoroughbred ownership in the 1960s and developed Dogwood Stable. Dogwood's Thoroughbreds have won some of America's most prestigious races, from the Preakness Stakes to the Breeders' Cup. He lives in Aiken, South Carolina.

Store Description

BookLovers of Bath is based in the rural idyll of Peasedown St. John in Somerset (God's Own Country) in the south west of England and actually very nearly in Bath. After 20 years of being ?internet only? I have now opened a shop, Fact or Fable, in the premises of our now-closed Post Office. With over 10,000 books in my, recently shrunken, storage unit and another 5,000 or so in the shop I run an old-fashioned book business with every book listed, graded, picked, packed and posted by my own fair hand? abetted by my Jack Russells who are really, not, helpful.
