Nowadays the only wat to acquire an eye for a horse is to study as many different equines as possible, gradually building up a picture of what is desirable in a quality animal. The aim of this book is to assist in that study by providing a detailed guide to the horse's outward frame, with the aid of over 250 specially taken photographs accompanied by an expert commentary from distinguished horseman Robert Oliver.

The pictures examine points of conformation of today's horses and ponies, portraying both good and bad features alike.

The book is divided into sections dealing with the various parts of the body, and also includes photographs and notes on colors, markings, action, and teeth and aging. To help the inexperienced to assess the potential of a horse or pony, the book features a series of before and after comparisons, depicting horses in show condition and in the rough. A final section features illustrations of a wide variety of individual breeds to show how different characteristics and points of conformation come together to create the forms we recognize as breeds or types.

The book is an ideal reference for career students, show judges and horse owners, and will provide invaluable to anyone contemplating buying a horse or pony.

Hardcover, 160 pages with over 250 Black and White photographs.
