The Ring

Excerpt from The Ring: In Two Parts To write upon a subject which is probably a sealed book, as far as a very large portion of the Public is concerned, requires, at any rate a few words of explanation if not of apology. Racing, however, of late has taken up a position so prominent in itself, that the Ring and its affairs can scarcely be said to be beneath the notice of the Public, although starched and straight-laced hypocrites pretend to decry the first as Gambling and the second as Roguery. This Satire is not a volunteer on my part - but a necessary consequence of the absurdities of others. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
