Review

This was such a well-written and in-depth content about horses in movies! Even people who aren’t much interested in horses would find this fascinating and intriguing because the information that you can get from this book would make you feel as if you’ve been a part of the filmmaking. It really tackles what the horses, filmmakers, and staff go through in dealing with horses in films. The pictures are beautiful, too! I am definitely giving this 5 out of 5 stars! This is a really good documented material of horses in the film industry all throughout history. I highly recommend this to readers who love horses and movies.
