Kevin Chong’s three non-fiction books cover distinct subjects. Neil Young Nation (2005) is about the iconic Canadian musician and his lasting cultural impact. My Year of the Racehorse (2012) documents Chong’s experience as a racehorse owner over the course of a season, blending memoir with reportage about the horse racing world.
Northern Dancer (2014) tells the story of one of the greatest racehorses in history, a Canadian-bred thoroughbred who changed international horse breeding. The three books share Chong’s curious, personal approach to non-fiction, where he gets close to his subjects and writes from the inside.
