5.0 out of 5 stars Packed With Information!, December 19, 2007
By Floyd Jackson (Oklahoma City, OK) - See all my reviews
Horse Packing is an illuminating view into the practice of using horses to pull wagons. Since this is one of the oldest forms of transportation, it is also one of the most important, and this book is a great way to learn about it in greater detail.
