This

is
an
easy-to-use
guide
to
the
identification
of
the
major
breeds
and
types
of
horses
and
ponies
of
all
the
world's
horse-breeding
countries.
Each
breed
is
listed
alphabetically
under
its
country
of
origin,
with
a
description
of
its
appearance,
height,
colour,
temperament
and
characteristics,
uses
and
origin.
Each
description
is
accompanied
by
at
least
one
colour
illustration
on
the
same
spread.
The
handy
format
makes
this
book
useful
both
to
casual
observers
and
more
active
horse-lovers
who
wish
to
confirm
their
observations.
A
comprehensive
introduction
describes
the
evolution
and
history
of
the
horse
and
the
development
of
modern
breeds
and
types,
together
with
a
detailed
discussion
on
conformation.
