For the Unnamed (Black Jockey Who Rode the Winning Steed in the Race Between Pico's Sarco and Sepulveda's Black Swan in Los Angeles, in 1852.) Fred D'Aguiar's new book recovers and re-imagines the story of a black jockey who raced and won the most publicised race of his era and yet was not named in any of the many press notices about the event. Except to say that he was black and he was a freeman (that is, he had purchased his freedom).
