Long before there was a Las Vegas, there was a Saratoga. In a time before radio and television, Americans in the Gilded Age viewed Saratoga as the culmination of their hopes and dreams. Then as now, captains of industry and the very wealthy mingled with middleclass visitors for a summer sojourn punctuated by social events, parties, business, and the races, where major stakes days drew sellout crowds. In Saratoga Stories, Jon Bartels regales readers with tales of the colorful characters of yesteryear such as Diamond Jim Brady and John Morrissey and racing stars like Man o War and Native Dancer as well as modernday personalities such as Marylou Whitney and legends like Secretariat. Throughout its long history, Saratoga Race Course has played host to the best and sometimes the worst that horse racing has to offer.

This book really captures the essence of Saratoga's rich history with gangsters and gamblers. The stories are engaging and filled with fascinating details that make it hard to put down. It’s perfect for anyone who loves horse racing or just enjoys a good tale!

Not what I expected
I bought this book thinking it would be more about the actual races, but it focuses a lot on the personalities instead. While that’s interesting, it wasn't quite what I was hoping for. Packaging was fine, but I wasn't impressed with the content.

Interesting but could be more detailed
I enjoyed the anecdotes in 'Gangsters, Gamblers, and Racing Legends', but some parts felt a bit rushed. I was hoping for deeper insights into certain characters. Still, it's an entertaining read if you're into racing lore and a bit of nostalgia.
