Originally published in 1905, this work is a celebration of the Arab breed of horse. It is complete with illustrative photographs, and includes chapters such as 'Horses of Ancient Arabia', 'What Sort of Horse to Breed'. 'Sundry Ecomiums on the Arab taken at Random, and Instances of Love of the Arab by Great Soldiers', and much more. This is a fantastic work for anyone with an interest in the history and development of this remarkable breed, and how they came to be so revered as a model for the species. To complement the republication of this work, we have added a specially commissioned new introduction on the physiology and breeding of horses.
