"Horses" by Roger Pocock is a broad look into the world of horses, considering their beginnings, the different kinds that exist, and how people and horses interact. The book uses Pocock's experience as someone who lived on the frontier and his love for horses to explore the horse's history and how it has changed to fit different surroundings. Starting with tales of divine creation and ancient ancestors, the book explains not just the history of horses from long ago but also how those old environments shaped them into what they are today, laying the groundwork for a deeper study of their relationship with humans.
