The horse : a natural history

Busby, Debbie2019
Books, Manuscripts
'The Horse' looks not only at the horse in the human context but also at its own story, and at the way horses live and have lived both alongside people and independently. An initial chapter on evolution and development takes the reader from the tiny prehistoric eohippus to modern-day equus. Subsequent chapters on anatomy and biology, and society and behaviour offer a succinct explanation of equine anatomy, and outline the current thinking on horse behaviour, incorporating information taken from the most recent research.
