This review is from: The Illustrated Encyclopedia of Horse Breeds: A Comprehensive Visual Directory of the World's Horse Breeds (Illustrated Encyclopedias (Booksales Inc)) (Hardcover)
I liked this book because it had many breeds I had never heard of. Susan McBane grouped the breeds into regions of the world so you can find where the horse come from. McBane also put the breeds of the horses which were breed together to form the breed. McBane gave great information about the breed and it's highlights. If you are looking for an interesting breed you have found your book.

I loved this book!!!! Everytime I need to look up a horse I look at this book. It has everything you need to know in it. The pictures were awsome too. I would say that every horselover needs to have this book. I'm 15 years old and it told me everything I needed to know about horses.

I am a wrap around therapist for an autistic 13 year old boy who cannot speak. He loves horses. We use this book everyday for our drills. This book has so many facts that are uncomplicated, but informative. It has beautiful pictures in it. Sometimes we just look at the pictures of horses because they are so beautiful. It covers almost every topic about horses. I have learned a lot about horses My client has learned alot through this book.
