    I thought it was really interesting. I did not know about most of the horse histories before reading this book.

    My second book for this review is called, Galloping through history. This is a non fiction book full of stories of horses. My personal story in this was Alexzander the Great. (The first one) I liked this one because it was really interesting and quite cool. What happens is there is a horse named Bucephalus, this is a wild horse that is tamed by a small child and is made the king’s horse they work together to defeat enemies in war time. This book shows how different people from different times and years used horses and how they were very important. Out of 10 I rate this a 8 out of 10! It’s a really good book. In this book I learned more about horses and how they are important and how they have shaped humanity in so many ways. Some information I got from the book would have to be that horses in all shapes and sizes are used the most while mules donkeys, etc. are used for hauling and other farm purposes.
