Books at the Bar
May 24, 2022 @ 6:00 pm CDT

Join us for our May Books at the Bar Book, “Wild Ride: The Rise The Rise and Tragic Fall of Calumet Farm, Inc., America’s Premier Racing Dynasty” by Ann Hagedorn Auerbach.
This book begins in the vast farmlands of the Bluegrass, with an investigation of the fast-track, multibillion-dollar thoroughbred industry and of the fall of Calumet – the inside story of a financial debacle that reached farther than anyone could have imagined.
This family saga, an expose, and a mystery, it is also a portrait of an industry that succumbed to the temptations of the speculative era known as the Bluegrass Bubble. When the bubble exploded, an American institution lay in ruins.
