When popular equine photographer Barbara Livingston released her book Old Friends in 2002 to profile and honor Thoroughbred racing's beloved "seniors" through her words and photographs, fan reaction was immediate: "When is Old Friends 2 coming out?!" The original book, now out of print, remains popular with collectors. A Lexington, Kentucky, area equine organization even took on the name "Old Friends" to give r etired racehorses a final home. So, now, Livingston is back with More Old Friends, featuring 175 color photographs of some of racing's most revered retirees.

Summary: Excellent, most beautiful tribute to racing legends
Comment: This book is a most beautiful tribute to racing legends. Both the photography and stories of each champion will warm your heart......some will bring tears to your eyes. A very special book for anyone who has ever read about these magnificant animals. I highly recommend it, as well as Old Friends, Barbara Livingston's first book. Both are treasures.

Summary: More Old Friends a must have!
Comment: While perhaps not as good as the first one (the horses are less "famous" overall) this is still an excellent book with the same great pictures and behind the scenes information. What was really heart warming about this book was how many farms and individuals, big and small, actually CARE about their oldsters and keep them happy and comfortable no matter what it takes, high vet bills, special shoes, special feeds, housing, whatever. If only ALL TB owners and breeders would do the right thing that way these farms do then precious few would end up in kill pens or low end auctions.
