Horse History Articles: Tales of the Horse

HORSE KNOWLEDGE CENTER Meet the Horse Artist: Sculptor Patricia Crane Contact
John Reismiller Horse history articles and "tales of the horse' have evolved through man?s need, use and love of the horse and his historical partnership with this animal over centuries. Much has been written of this or that famous steed, both in times long past or not so long ago.

It is also true and of equal interest, that sometimes such tales simply speak of the bond between horse and man, rather than of a famous individual, or offer facts and information, sometimes historical. In sharing the love of horses , facts and sentiments of horse history, we wish you much pleasure, fact-finding and entertainment via such tales!
