What if Phar Lap had kept a diary? What would he have written about? This book provides the answers to those questions! ...Beginning in August 1929, when Phar Lap was a three-year-old, the diary tells of Phar Lap's harsh training regimen, his love for his stable hand Tommy Woodcock, the thrill of his racing career and his curiosity about the world beyond his stable. As we all know, Phar Lap's life was one of intrigue and drama, and his death was a source of controversy for decades. This diary tells the events as they were, straight from the horse's mouth!...Released on the 75th anniversary of his death, The Diary of Phar Lap is a fitting tribute to a horse who united a country and became a legend in the process.
