<p> &quot;<i>Secretariat</i> is an elegantly crafted, exhilarating tale of speed and power, grace and greatness, told with such immediacy that the reader is lost in the rush of horses and the clatter and ring of the grandstand.&quot;</p> <p> - Laura Hillenbrand, bestselling author of <i>Seabiscuit</i></p> <p><i></i> </p> <p>Updated with a new preface by the author</p> <p> </p> <p>In 1973, Secretariat, the greatest champion in horse-racing history, won the Triple Crown. The only horse to ever grace the covers of <i>Time, Newsweek</i>, and <i>Sports Illustrated </i>in the same week, he also still holds the record for the fastest times in both the Kentucky Derby and the Belmont Stakes. He was also the only non-human chosen as one of ESPN's &quot;50 Greatest Athletes of the Century.&quot; The tale of &quot;Big Red&quot; is an enduring and inspiring classic, more than thirty years after its initial publication.</p>
