Jack Galloway died in 1987, a year after his mother and two years after his wife, Alice. When Alice, my mother, died in 1985, he wasn't sure what he'd do without her. I said, Write. Write a book. Of course, that suggestion was dismissed when he said he was no writer.

In 2005 I wrote about an impending book in my Up Close column for a local newspaper. I told my readers my dad was a writer. He had written me letters through the years because I lived 500 miles away from him and Mom. I knew he could write. So I told him to write about each of the horses in his life. I rattled a few off, Write about Patty Ann, Old Pal, Eagle, Darky and Spike or Harding, I said. Then write about the people you've known. There was Old Poke Kidder and Floyd Jones, to name a couple.
