Contents: Publisher's Note:

Written by some of the world's leading experts in their respective fields, it is the most authoritative and comprehensive work of its kind now available. The authors cover virtually every aspect of the subject, from mounting, grooming, and tack to genetics, nutrition, and health. The book is an extremely practical presentation of information, much of which is the result of the most recent scientific research; yet it is written in such a way that any intelligent person can understand it. More than three hundred illustrations, closely integrated with the text, add an extra dimension of understanding and enjoyment. A removable color chart depicts all the possible coat colors of horses.
