Legends, Volume 5: Outstanding Quarter Horse Stallions and Mares (Legends) 1 review Alan Gold, Sally Harrison, ...
Western Horseman, 2004
It's ok, but not worth the price
For a book of this price, I was expecting the photos of the horses to be in color. There are plenty of photos, but the only color is on the front & back cover. It's ok, but for this price, Western Horseman could do better.
The horses profiled in this book are:
Bartender
Bill Cody
Chicado V
