Description

"God forbid" R.B.Cunningham wrote "that I should go to any heaven in which there are no horses". Other horse lovers will cite the Arabian proverb: "The wind of heaven is that which blows between a horses ears". Heavenly as they are, horses are very much of this earth, ranging wild as Mustangs or ponies, herding cows across vast plains, doing the yeoman's work of the farm pulling plows and wagons. These stalwarts of the farm, of cowboy lore, and rider's passion appear in striking images alongside quotes from writers who have celebrated the draft horse, stallion, the boon companion and trusty servant of those who work the land , and ride these magnificent animals.
