From the Author
"It was 4:30 in the morning, and things were so dark and still, it seemed the whole world must be asleep, when I eased up to the gate at my first horse racing track. This was my first real trip to the backside, completely alive and at it's peak when most of us are in dreamland." (From the artist's statement in the book.)
