This fascinating account delves into the history and techniques of horse breeding in Orange County, a region renowned for producing exceptional trotters during the 19th century. The author, a native and prominent figure in the local equestrian community, draws upon his extensive knowledge to provide valuable insights into breeding practices and the pedigrees of celebrated horses from that era.
