Reseña del editor

Part of a series of reference books that give detailed information on a wide variety of subjects and interests. This book is a visual guide to the evolution, behaviour and role in civilization of all members of the horse family. The book traces the development of horses from when they were odd-looking, striped, horse-like creatures with toes rather than hooves millions of years ago in North America and Europe. Horses covered include herds of wild mustangs or zebras as well as a representative collection of all the major international breeds of the domestic horse.
