Engaging and accessible. A recommended purchase for collections where equestrian and animal titles are popular.
The absolutely amazing story of the horse, from it’s evolution in North America through it’s domestication by man, as a weapon of war and engine of Empire to modern times, this really shows the history of the horse is also the history of humanity.
The Horse is a unique history told through the lens of the horse and how they affected history. A unique premise that readers will find intriguing and interesting. As a history enthusiast and resident horse girl, I couldn't put this book down. I'm always looking for new ways to learn about how horses changed the world and this book fit that bill. It was interesting, intense, and I couldn't put it down.
