About this book
Where the horse came from and how it spread across the world leads into the story of the American horse in this 1897 work by John H. Wallace, founder of Wallace's American Trotting Register. He says it is the first attempt in any language to trace the horse's original home and its distribution.
One section deals with horses of the Colonial period in each of the American colonies, giving size, gaits and characteristics. Another explains how the trotting horse is bred and follows the publications through which the trotting breed was established, down to the close of 1896. Maps and illustrations accompany the text, which the author issued himself in New York.
