Description:

Before trucks and tractors, draft horses performed the heavy work of pulling wagons, plowing fields, and hauling logs. But the internal combustion engine did not entirely replace these animals; they are still used in many parts of the country for agricultural and other jobs.The Book of Draft Horsesis a celebration of these "gentle giants," as well as a practical handbook on breeding, care, training, competition, and working horses.
