A review by theredqueenlinnea
The Horse: The Epic History of Our Noble Companion by Wendy Williams

adventurous challenging informative inspiring lighthearted mysterious medium-paced

4.0

This was a really great read. There’s an obvious love by Williams here for the entirety of the horse, and a good albeit ‘scientifically behind’ ethic about how horses should be treated, though that’s probably just due to her age. Nothing negative, just seems she learned that horses are actually sentient beings with personality that deserve respect way later than she should have. Reader beware: this is a very detailed evolutionary science book, which I love and preferred, but if you’re not into that and would like less evolutionary history this may not be the book for you.
