The Kentucky Derby is the oldest continuous sporting event in the United States. But don't call it just a horse race.

This annual May event, known as the most exciting two minutes in sports, is steeped in tradition and pageantry far beyond what happens on the track. Following the alphabet, D is for Derby: A Kentucky Derby Alphabet uses poetry and expository text to explain this world-famous event. Topics include famous jockeys, legendary horses, fabled Bluegrass farms and owners, as well as offering a behind-the scenes view of thoroughbred breeding and racing.
