Horses - Paula Hammond

From the Azteca to the Appaloosa, the Choctaw to the Palomina, the Brumby in Australia to the Mongolian, from rare breeds such as the Polish Konik to the semi-feral Pyrenean Pottok, Horses celebrates a wide variety of breeds from all around the world.   Ranging from dressage to police horses, from racing horses to rodeo and polo, this book looks at the anatomy and lifecycle of foals and yearlings, colts and fillies, stallions, mares, and geldings around the globe. It includes draft horses and warmbloods, light horses and thoroughbreds, gaited horses, ponies, and breeds that have become feral. Each photograph is accompanied by a caption with fascinating information about the characteristics of each breed. Horses is an exquisitely produced work packed with lively information about this beloved animal.
