This is an amazingly informative book on the arabian horse. It has beautiful photographs of the desert Bedouins and their amazing culture, fold outs of original bloodlines throughout the ages, picture after picture of famous arabian horses, the purest in the world and how their bloodlines tie in with modern day.
