The Racing Tribe

More about the book

The book explores the unique subculture of British horseracing, as social anthropologist Kate Fox immerses herself in this vibrant world. Rather than the typical remote research settings, Fox enjoys her fieldwork at racetracks, donning a pink hat and high heels. She uncovers the distinctive customs, rituals, language, and etiquette that define this community, offering an insightful and entertaining perspective on a lesser-explored aspect of British culture.
