Bob Denhardt first "penned up" "The Quarter Horse" and had it
printed in Houston in 1941. It was the first book ever published
about this then-new breed of horse; the American Quarter Horse
Association had been formed just the year before. Today Quarter
Horses are one of the most popular and famous breeds, and the
association is the world's largest livestock breeders'
organization.
Collected here are all the early articles that appeared concerning
early Quarter Horses, or "Steel Dusts," as they were called after
one of their progenitors. Denhardt was first introduced to the
legendary animals in 1937 by Texas author J. Frank Dobie, and in
his search for them he found not just a single horse, but a common
type, a breed.
The stories and articles in this book tell about such sires as
Traveler, Peter McCue, Weatherford Joe Bailey, Dan Tucker, and Old
Fred--an accumulation of knowledge about the early Quarter Horses
of the Southwest that is invaluable to today's breeders, owners,
and lovers of the breed who want to know more about the origins of
their horses.
