Re: Hardback version. It is really a shame that the hardback version is out of print. This is an outstanding reference guide for anyone whose life has anything to do with horses. It is a handy size (small) accurate photos, very detailed informaton on all breeds from many areas of the world. A terrific resource for all. I own it and wanted to give copies of the hardback edition to others for gifts.

I have been riding horses for fourteen years and this book is the best guide to breeds that I have found yet. The pictures are of quality horses and the breed descriptions are informative and enlightening. It is a must for every horse lover.

I am 37 years old and this is probably my favorite book. I show Breyer model horses and so I am always looking for good breed assignments outside of the Breed assigned by the Breyer company. It is colorful, full of useful facts (color , origin etc) as well as having common and extremely rare breeds as well.

All & all a wonderful book ~~ Renee
