Horses

by Seymour Simon, Thomas McGuane, unknown author, Laura Driscoll, A. M. Homes, Yann Arthus-Bertrand, Jill Greenberg, Nicola Jane Swinney, Jean-Louis Gouraud

Travel the world of horses, with two major American artists as your guides.

Horses and humans have a long history together, from wild steppe to farm field to battlefield, from rodeo arena to backyard. In Horses, Jay Dusard and Thomas McGuane illuminate the special bond that grows between riders and mounts. Their book is a memorable collaboration between two masters: Dusard offers his insight in words as well as in his extraordinary photography, McGuane in a pair of essays.

"Those who love horses are impelled by an ever-receding vision, some enchanted transformation through which the horse and the rider become a third, much greater thing," writes McGuane, also an acclaimed novelist and horseman. More than words, more than pictures, this slim, beautiful book is also a "third thing."

"To some people," McGuane observes, "horses have wings." Comic, exquisite, gritty, and wise—Horses flies on wings of its own. 45 b/w and color photos.

Horses

by Seymour Simon, Thomas McGuane, unknown author, Laura Driscoll, A. M. Homes, Yann Arthus-Bertrand, Jill Greenberg, Nicola Jane Swinney, Jean-Louis Gouraud

In Horses, Seymour Simon introduces elementary-school readers to horses through engaging descriptions and stunning full-color photographs. He teaches readers all about horses through pictures, diagrams, and maps. This book includes a glossary and index.
What animal can . . . run so fast, its feet don't always touch the ground, weigh more than 2,000 pounds, sense people's emotions by their smell, . . . and wear shoes? Why, a horse, of course!
Horses are some of the most fascinating--and important--creatures on Earth. In fact, our world would not be the way it is today if not for horses. Horses have carried medieval knights into battle, transported settlers to the American West, and hauled fire engines and buses. They even turned the wheels that provided power for factories! But one of their greatest, most enduring gifts to us is companionship and trust.

Horses

by Seymour Simon, Thomas McGuane, unknown author, Laura Driscoll, A. M. Homes, Yann Arthus-Bertrand, Jill Greenberg, Nicola Jane Swinney, Jean-Louis Gouraud

Saddle up for a look at kids' favorite horses—sporting horses, working horses, and different breeds, too—in this stunning photographic book for the youngest horse lovers.

Horses

by Seymour Simon, Thomas McGuane, unknown author, Laura Driscoll, A. M. Homes, Yann Arthus-Bertrand, Jill Greenberg, Nicola Jane Swinney, Jean-Louis Gouraud

Best known for her amazingly anthropomorphic and affectionate portraits of monkeys and bears, Jill Greenberg turns her lens to horses for her new photographic collection. This is the perfect gift for every horse lover. In this beautifully conceived volume, Jill Greenberg captures the powerful, romantic, and enigmatic nature of horses through her signature lens in photographs that make these animals all the more otherworldly yet familiar. Where Greenberg’s earlier books explored the mystery and depth of emotion behind some of nature’s most dangerous creatures (Kodiak and polar bears, baboons, and gibbons, among others), Horses is an elegiac exploration of these heroic and often idealized creatures. Transformed by Greenberg’s lens, the horse’s powerful physical beauty becomes a hyper-real vision, and her gorgeous prints seduce us in a subtle manner with their sensuous, painterly textures. Horses were Greenberg’s first muse and love, and for this portfolio she returns to her original inspiration.Featuring stunning photographs of a range of horse breeds, from Friesians and Andalusians to Arabian stallions, Lusitanos, and thoroughbred performance horses, this book is a gorgeous tribute to these spirited and powerful creatures and the perfect gift for those officially and unofficially devoted to horses, horseback riding, and racing.

Horses

by Seymour Simon, Thomas McGuane, unknown author, Laura Driscoll, A. M. Homes, Yann Arthus-Bertrand, Jill Greenberg, Nicola Jane Swinney, Jean-Louis Gouraud

The lives of humans and horses have been intricately linked for thousands of years, with equines depicted in cave paintings dating back to 5000 BC. Horses have been developed by humans for many purposes--for war, for working in the field and in industry, for competitive sports events such as the Olympic Games, and as pets. Horses covers the world's most charismatic and iconic breeds, from the noble Arab and Akhal-Teke, through working breeds such as the mighty Percheron and diminutive Fell pony, to 'primitive' equines such as Przewalski's Horse and the Polish Konik.

Each breed entry showcases a unique and beautiful equine breed, showing it in magnificent full-color photographs; these are accompanied by a historical account of the breed's origins and history. More than 70 amazingly diverse breeds are featured.

Horses

by Seymour Simon, Thomas McGuane, unknown author, Laura Driscoll, A. M. Homes, Yann Arthus-Bertrand, Jill Greenberg, Nicola Jane Swinney, Jean-Louis Gouraud

Renowned photographer Yann Arthus-Bertrand—master of light and shadow, angle and exposure—etches these magnificent creatures and their human partners in photographs shot on location and around the globe, from Montana to Russia, central Asia to Argentina, Mongolia and Cameroon, and points in between. Each moment captured offers a glimpse of the breath of humanity, and man's powerful and moving relationship with the horse. Full of tribal costume, local color, and panoramic scenery—accompanied by the text of equine expert Jean-Louis Gouraud—Horses is a project of unparalleled ambition and scope.
