Book Reviews of My Guy Barbaro: A Jockey's Journey Through Love, Triumph, and Heartbreak with America's Favorite Horse
Book Review: Animal Lovers United
Summary: 5 Stars
Interesting insight behind the scenes on horse racing. I loved this book. Yep! I cried at the end, even though I knew the ending already. Edgar obviously loves horse and gave an insider's opinion on how horses in the race world ought to be treated - with dignity, respect, and most of all, love. Barbaro's owners are to be commended as being horse lovers, first and foremost. Barbaro was a majestic, spunky, and beautiful creature. Edgar is a horse lover, too, and a fine horesman. His ethic of not injuring a horse for the sake of any race, no matter the stakes, is sheer love and respect for the horses he has spent his life with. The horses are lucky to have a gifted, kind and caring jockey to work with them. i can hardly wait for the 2008 Derby and see if Barbaro's sibling can finish what Barbaro so magnificently started. Barbaro did for equine health what Nicole Simpson did for domestic abuse.
