Kim Wickens Lexington: The Extraordinary Life and Turbulent Times of America’s Legendary Racehorse is a historical biography of Lexington, the 19th-century Thoroughbred whose racing talent was eventually overshadowed by his importance as a sire. Published by Ballantine Books, the book treats Lexington not simply as a famous animal but as a figure through whom readers can understand early American racing, Kentucky breeding culture, Civil War disruption, and the transformation of the Thoroughbred industry. Lexington was foaled in 1850, originally named Darley, and became one of the fastest horses of his day before blindness and breeding value reshaped his career. Wickens’s purpose is to reconstruct a life that had long been central to pedigrees but had not received a full modern biography. The result is sports history, equine biography, and social history combined, explaining why Lexington’s influence continued long after his own races ended.
