Event:  On March 30, 1970, Secretariat drew his first breath in a little white foaling shed on a historic farm called The Meadow in Caroline County, Virginia.  Three years later he would leave the nation breathless as he captured the Triple Crown, shattering records and rivals alike.
Though much has been written about his spectacular racing career, the complete story of Secretariat’s birthplace and the Chenery family who raised and raced him has never been told…until now.  And now a Chenery is telling it.
Secretariat’s Meadow: The Land, The Family, The Legend by Kate Chenery Tweedy, daughter of Penny Chenery (Tweedy) and granddaughter of Christopher Chenery, who founded the racing stable.  Co-authored with Leeanne Ladin, this pictorial history, published by Wayne Dementi, tells not only Secretariat’s story, but the story of an enduring piece of land where an “empire built on broodmares” eventually produced an immortal son.
