Kimberly Rinker's Historical Book

Kimberly Rinker's Historical Book on Chicago Horse Racing & Racetracks

From Washington Park, Lincoln Fields, and Worth Raceway on Chicago's South Side, to the Near West Side venues of Hawthorne Race Course and Sportsman’s Park, to Arlington Park’s northwest locale and Aurora Downs to the west, Chicago’s racing community has enjoyed a long, and sometimes scandalous, history. Award winning writer Kimberly Rinker's latest book, Chicago’s Horse Racing Venues, provides insight into Chicago’s rich racing history and a behind-the-scenes look at the people and horses involved.

Rinker's Chicago's Horse Racing Venues is a detailed,  128-page historical  chronicle, complete with over 200 unique photographs. It will be available for purchase on Monday, June 8th, online at Amazon.com, at U.S. bookstores and from the publisher (www.arcadiapublishing.com) for $21.99.  Book signings in the Chicago area are currently being scheduled, and dates for those will be available shortly
