"The Horse in History" is a powerful opus on integrating animal power into human civilization at different stages of its development. The book starts with historical mentions about the role of horses, breeding, and cavalry in the ancient cultures of Egypt, Babylon, Rome, and Greece, runs through the role of cavalry in European wars, the conquest of the Americas, and finally describes the evolution of horse races and their establishment as a kind of sport in Britain of the late 19th century.
