Horse Breeds of North America

Think of this handy little book as a pocket field guide to horses. The book contains 96 breeds, each with a two-page spread. One side features a beautiful photograph of an example of the breed and the other side gives information such as the name, a short synopsis, the type of horse it is (pony, light or heavy), average height range, a description of the breed, the special qualities of the breed, what disciplines it is best suited for, and its place of origin. A fascinating read with good solid information and perfectly sized to take along with you anywhere. Pb, 204 pgs. ~ Megan
