About this product

Product Information

This is the most comprehensive and authoritative work on its subject. The author traces Arabians from 1580 B.C. to the present and through all the countries where they have been bred. Over 200 photographs and reproductions of ancient and modern art depict the great horses of the past and present, the conditions under which they were kept, how they were trained, and how the strains were developed. Drawings show the important points of the classic Arabian, and charts outline the major strains. The canvas on which the author has painted this panorama of the Arabian is large, and it is dedicated to the creative breeders, not only of the past and present, but especially of the future.

    $10 shipping and took over 2 weeks, refused to give tracking number, the cover is bent but they did not disclose that, poorly packaged and arrived open, overall bad experience and customer service- they just send copy and paste messages. I would avoid this seller.

  • Seller was awesome to work with

    I have read similar books on the origins of the Arabian horse as I have Arabian horses........and have bred, shown and ridden all of my life, I really enjoyed this book and it was in perfect condition and was very factual........loved the photos and the cover

  • Great Reference Book

    Great Book for beginner to learn from but also great for avid Arabian owners to research bloodlines.

  • The Classic Arabian Horse by Judith Forbis (1976)

    Excellent book with a lot of historical information gleaned from old texts and private correspondence. Amazing number of historic photos. A must-have for anyone interested in Arabian horses, particularly Egyptian-bred horses.
