"I knew I needed a specific "publishing" of this book due to some of the contents not being in later editions, I was able to contact sellers and find exactly what I needed. This book is fantastic....I would recomend it to EVERYONE that has ANY interest in horses. It has a COMPLETE history of the horse and has great anatomical etc. images in the book. I have a 4 year old Grand-daughter that has looked at EVERY page, she has learned alot from this book already. I have found this site a GREAT way to find books that are hard to come by."
