Exploring the natural history of the horse, this book offers a detailed and visually engaging journey from prehistoric times to modern day. It delves into the evolution, domestication, and cultural significance of horses, highlighting their roles across various societies. Rich illustrations complement the text, providing an immersive experience that appeals to both horse enthusiasts and those interested in natural history.

The Horse is a comprehensive exploration of the biology, behaviour, and diversity of a species that has evolved over 55 million years, and has been of vital importance to us since they were first domesticated 6,000 years ago. The Horse: A Natural History looks not only at the horse in the human context, but also at its own story, and at the way horses live and have lived both alongside people and independently. An initial chapter on Evolution & Development takes the reader from the tiny prehistoric Eohippus to modern-day Equus. Subsequent chapters on Anatomy & Biology and Society & Behavior offer a succinct explanation of equine anatomy, and outline the current thinking on horse behavior, incorporating information taken from the most recent research. Chapter 4, Horses & People, studies the part the horse has played in human history. Finally, a visually stunning gallery of breeds offers wonderful photographs alongside individual breed profiles. This is an essential addition to every horse enthusiasts library.
