     Once a thriving population of horses covered the Americas, then they spread across the World and died out in the Americas. But, as fate would have it, they were returned to their native lands by man. The development of human societies has been transformed in the Americas by the horse. The Horse allowed indigenous man to travel faster than his two legs could carry him on land. 

This book looks at the many eras of the horse in the Americas. From the ancient earliest horses to breeds created for the needs of indigenous tribes, hunters, trappers, adventurers, and settlers who populated the   American continents. This book takes a close look at how man adapted the horse to meet a wide spectrum of temperatures, environments, and conditions, as well as changing the animal's size and structure to meet the needs of newly developing societies within North and South America.
