A Kentucky Colonel: A Novel is a literary work written by Opie Read and published in 1890. The novel tells the story of Colonel Bob McLean, a wealthy and influential man from Kentucky who is known for his flamboyant personality and his love for horse racing. The plot revolves around the Colonel's efforts to save his beloved horse, Black Bess, from a group of unscrupulous gamblers who want to take advantage of her racing abilities for their own gain. Along the way, the Colonel encounters a wide range of colorful characters, including a beautiful young woman who captures his heart, a rival horse owner who will stop at nothing to defeat him, and a group of loyal friends who stand by him through thick and thin. Set against the backdrop of the American South in the late 19th century, A Kentucky Colonel is a vivid and engaging portrait of a bygone era, full of humor, romance, and adventure.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
