Preston Lewis<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

As a popular frontier pastime, horse racing always drew a crowd to admire and bet on horseflesh.

Betting on Horses<\/em> is the story of one frontier town\u2019s efforts to thrive as it vied with competitors for the telegraph, for the railroad, for exposure that would attract investors, and for its long-term survival.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
