Draft Horses Today
Used Book in Good Condition
Draft horses and mules are alive and doing very well. After falling to near extinction levels in the 1940s they have now grown in numbers and popularity to become firmly established as a source of power on farms, as an alternative to heavy machinery in logging operations, and as a part of equine recreation industry. This book is a celebration of this renewed interest in draft horses and mules. Discussions on breeds, finding a horse, where equipment and machinery can be found, how to find people to train draft horses. Photos illustrating how people are using their draft horses and mules. 290 color photos, an Appendix listing names and addresses of 30 organizations, magazines, and suppliers which serve the industry, and an Index which lists people and photographers who are featured in the book.
