History of the Draft Horse; Belgian; Clydesdale; Percheron; Shire; Westphalian; Suffolk; and the breed that didn't make it - the American Cream; "We think you'll find this the most complete book ever published on draft horses, at least from the owner's point of view. ...our aim is to bring you some of the history, feelings, experiences and outright 'love affair' draft horsepeople have had through owning and working with these magnificent steeds. While the rest of this book is put together in a logical sequence - tracing the hisory of draft horses from the days they were needed to the present when owning them is mostly a nostalgic hobby - we've put one chapter right up here in the front of the book. To us, that seems appropriate, since the ultimate excitement of driving a big hitch can be grasped in no better way than to share the experiences of Dick Sparrow, the man who drives 'the 40.'"
