Featuring original paintings by Richard Stone Reeves, text by the late Thoroughbred racing historian Jim Bolus, and a foreword by August Belmont IV, Royal Blood celebrates Reeves' five decades among the finest sporting painters of the modern era with 50 paintings of the world's greatest Thoroughbreds. Most of these works today hang in private collections and are reproduced here for the first time. Each of the 50 chapters opens with Reeves' personal recollections, which serve as a prelude to thorough historical profiles by award-winning Turf writer Jim Bolus.
