The Quarter Horse is a fast horse that got its name in the 17th Century by running races over courses that were just a quarter mile long. Later, the Quarter Horse took on a new role as a stock horse, helping ranchers settle the Western sections of the United States. Its ability to anticipate the movements of a cow made the Quarter Horse a natural at herding cattle. There’s much more information about the Quarter Horse inside this book. Open it and learn all about the horse with the natural “cow sense.”
