Arthur B. Hancock III discussing Dark Horses: A Memoir of Redemption
In this new memoir, Hancock tells the incredible story of his journey to the brink and back again. On one level,
it is an intimate portrait of the American Turf, introducing some of the most colorful characters and vignettes in its history.
But the underlying narrative deals in epic human themes: rebellion and redemption, addiction and recovery, desire and spirituality, discord and song. Above all, its unflinching record of every twist in the road - shameful or inspiring, tragic or comic - shows how the same dreams that can unravel a life will
sometimes end up saving it.
Arthur Boyd Hancock III is a fourth-generation Thoroughbred horseman who has raised three Kentucky Derby winners
on his Stone Farm in Paris, Kentucky. He is also a musician and avid songwriter whose songs have been recorded by
some of country music's greats.
