This book is a MUST for any paint horse lover. The photographs are excellent. Many beautiful horses and exceptional qualityscenery.
This book was everything I hoped it would be, and more!! Every page has beautiful photography and the write-ups are excellent. I am sooo pleased I spent the money! I wish I lived in America and had a Paint Horse (or 4) of my own! Hopefully the Paint population will keep growing in New Zealand. Thank you Jennifer Forsberg Meyer for a wonderful book.
Just received this marvelous book, The American Paint Horse. I am so impressed with the photographs and the heartfelt writing about this most beautiful of horse breeds. This book makes me want to go out and take up horseback riding at the age of 64! Of course only if I could ride one of these beautiful horses. This book illustrates this magnificent horse to such a heart aching degree. The photos of the kids with these horses, the working horses, the people and these horses and these horses just with each other. I found that some of the photograghs made me just stop and stare. The colors like jewels in a box are amazing. This book is for anyone that appreciates great photography and most of all this truly American horse. I am just so happy that I bought this book and I even got a signed copy at such a reasonable cost. I do look at the other reviews and it helps me make up my mind. There was only one review that was not positive of this book, of which I do not agree but that is what makes the world go round that we each have an opinion., you are the best source of books and the only place I buy books, especially hard to find ones. Thanks.
I had ordered a book about the "American Paint Horse" and expected a "photographic portrayal." What I got was a book about Americans who happen to own Paint horses -- I didn't want that and I don't need that!The design and photography is quite pedestrian (pun intended), I had seen better photography by Stoecklein before.At least I learned one lesson from this: don't trust customer reviews too much! Now I search for a real good coffee-tabler with real Paints and no people in it (no, I'm not a people-hater but I like things pure and neat).
