Written with the full participation of the American Quarter Horse
Association-the largest equine breed registry in the world-The
American Quarter Horse is a fully illustrated manual for
prospective and novice owners and riders.
The American Quarter Horse is the world's most popular horse and
America's oldest breed, with origins tracing back to the 1600s,
along the eastern seaboard. Originally bred to fill colonists'
passion for short-distance match racing, these heavily muscled,
compact horses were perfectly suited to run faster than any other
horse along narrow streets. As America moved west, so did the
American Quarter Horse, and pioneers quickly learned of the horse's
natural ability for herding cattle. This horse's willingness,
intelligence, and disposition make him the ideal choice not only
for first-time owners and recreational riders, but also for riders
interested in all facets of Western, English, and racing
competitions. As a show horse or trail horse, the American Quarter
Horse is bound to please.
Beginning with a brief history of the breed, this book offers
detailed advice on locating and selecting a horse, as well as
stabling, feeding, grooming, and otherwise taking responsible care
of the animal. Also explained are the American Quarter Horse's many
uses: from informal trial riding to barrel racing, cutting, and
reining; from Western horsemanship to show jumping, dressage, and
racing. The American Quarter Horse is the indispensable guide for
anyone interested in owning and riding America's favorite horse.
