There are also many available at the Kentucky Horse Park and the Derby Museum.
As far as the land, farm construction, etc. these things are not in books. You need to travel to Central Kentucky and stay there for a minimum of 6 months to a year to gain knowledge and experience.
All of this, along with spending all the time that you can in the Keeneland Library, where you will find much of this--for free.

Thanks for the info!
Unfortunately I'm from Brazil and I wont be able to go to these places, this is why I wanted to read some books. I'll check these ones you've mentioned and see if I can find anything else!
Thanks a lot!
