Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted July 9, 2019 Journalists Share Posted July 9, 2019 The Keeneland Library, which is celebrating its 80th anniversary this year, will spotlight new publications about Thoroughbred racing–from stories compiled by noted Central Kentucky horseman and longtime radio show host Ercel Ellis to new books about the Triple Crown, the GI Runhappy Travers at Saratoga and Racing Hall of Famer Spectacular Bid–as its popular Library Lecture Series programs continue on selected Tuesday evenings for the remainder of the year. On July 23, Ellis will share stories from more than seven decades in the industry with a book signing of his July release, Kentucky Horse Tales. On Aug. 20, Edward L. Bowen will discuss his new book, The Lucky Thirteen: The Winners of America’s Triple Crown of Horse Racing. On Oct. 22, Brien Bouyea will present his new book, The Travers: 150 Years of Saratoga’s Greatest Race, which chronicles each edition of the famous race from Kentucky’s victory in the inaugural 1864 running through Catholic Boy’s win in 2018. On Dec. 3, Peter Lee will discuss his new book, Spectacular Bid: The Last Superhorse of the Twentieth Century, the third book in the “Horses in History” series published by the University Press of Kentucky. Each program, free and open to the public, is from 6:30-8:30 p.m. ET.
