About this product

Product Information

Heavy horses played a pivotal role in the development of western economies, toiling in mines and quarries, at mills, factories and docks, alongside canals and railway lines, in fields and pasture. But with the invention of the tractor and motor lorry their numbers plummeted, with some breeds close to extinction in the 1950s. Today, after a revival of interest, Shires, Clydesdaies, Suffolks and British Percherons attract special attention whenever they are seen, their magnificence and strength ensuring them a place in the modern world. This book examines the breeds and their qualities, their historical role, the industry that built up around them and the revival years.

  • Gentle Giants

    Well presented, compact and concise this little book is as great as the horses described. Fabulous photographs throughout, many of the locations shown recognizable so a plus for me from east Anglia. About A5 size, this handy little book came as a wonderful surprise, a real page turner, pick up and browse anytime. Highly recommend if you like the nostalgia of the heavy horse days.
