Dear Readers:

Contrary to popular belief, the Antebellum Turf Times has not prematurely ended its coverage of America’s first national pastime, for our long absence between publications has been due to the recent relocation of the Times’ offices.

Your Editor, as well as the Times’ loyal racing correspondent, had dedicated weeks to the painstaking task of packing up two centuries’ worth of turf archives—and now we are embroiled in the remarkable undertaking of unpacking two centuries’ worth of turf archives.

Yet no one longs more for reliving the tales of racing history than we do! As this year’s Triple Crown is upon us, we look forward to providing new material for our readers in the coming weeks.

Sincerely,

Editor, Antebellum Turf Times
