Title: Jack
Description: "Jack" is a true story of hardship, heartache, and heartfelt joy. The life and remarkable accomplishments of Jack Van Berg are a testament to discipline, respect, and commitment. The characters are real, yet the accounts of humans and horses seem unbelievable, as if they are from a different time--because they are. Step back and feel the embrace and warmth of life and horse racing before the age of the Internet and the cell phone. Jack lived through a golden age of horse racing; he trained champions, broke records and became a Hall of Fame trainer. This biography reveals how a son, Jack, worshiped his father [Marion Van Berg] and how those he mentored would later worship him."--Preface
