American Star; and facts are herein disclosed in 

 regard to the history of Rysdyk's Hambletonian never 

 before made public. As these are now universally 

 regarded as the representative stock horses of Orange 

 County, and as the history of each is replete with 

 interest, much more might have been written ; having 

 concluded, however, to offer our book at a price within 

 the reach of all, we have been compelled to condense 

 it in this as well as in many other particulars. We 

 have also appended a brief treatise on the diseases of 

 horses and the treatment thereof, which will be found 

 to be worth the price of the book ten-fold to every 

 horse owner.
