Harness Horses, Bucking Broncos & Pit Ponies: A History of Horse Breeds
by Jeff Crosby Shelley Ann JacksonThousands of years ago people living on the steppes of central Asia realized that horses could transport them long distances, help them fight their wars, pull their plows, and provide them with sport and companionship.

From fast horses like the Barb, which traveled to Spain from Africa in the early eighth century to become a foundation for many Spanish and European breeds, to war horses like the Mongolian that gave their owners military advantage (today there are more horses in Mongolia than there are people), to the hard-working horses ranging from the tiny American Miniature to the giant Clydesdale, Harness Horses,Bucking Broncos & Pit Ponies is a treasure-trove of information. Today there are fifty-eight million horses in the world.This is the perfect book for those who own (or dream of owning) a horse, who ride, or who simply like to read about these magnificent animals and the special relationship they share with humans.
