Synopsis

This true story of the rise of two Irish American butchers from a childhood spent playing marbles and scrapping with other children in the streets of Brooklyn to owning the top racing stable in the USA is a remarkable one. History has been neither honest nor fair in the way it has portrayed their story. This book is an attempt to put the record straight and to bring this hidden history back into the mainstream where it belongs. While exploring the rapid changes in the racing world of the 1880s, the book also explores the changes in society at the time. The Dwyers rose to fame at an extraordinary time in American history.
