Hellsmouth, an indomitable thoroughbred with the blood of Triple Crown winners in her blood vessels, runs for the glory of the Forge family, one of Kentucky's oldest and most powerful dynasties. Henry Forge has partnered along with his daughter, Henrietta, within an endeavor of raw obsession: to breed another superhorse, another Secretariat. However when Allmon Shaughnessy, an ambitious young dark man, involves focus on their farm after a stint in prison, the assault of the Forges' history and the exigencies of cravings are helped bring starkly into view. Entangled by fear, prejudice, and lust, the three tether their personal dreams of glory to the speed and elegance of Hellsmouth. A spiraling tale of riches and poverty, racism and rage, The Sport of Kings is an unflinching portrait of lives cast in darkness by the enduring legacy of slavery. A vital new words, C. E. Morgan has given life to an account as mythic and fraught as the South itself - a moral epic for our time.
