A spectacular photographic portrait of wild horses in exotic locales across the globe. Certain to inspire unbridled pleasure in horse lovers and nature photography enthusiasts, this magnificent volume portrays our beloved equine friends in the rarely seen and increasingly endangered setting of the wild. Horses in the wild are symbols of freedom, exhilarating embodiments of the harmonic beauty of unharnessed movement. The aesthetically stunning photographs in this collection provide the increasingly rare opportunity to glimpse them in the ever more endangered setting of untrammelled nature. The book is the product of the patient work of a small band of dedicated photographers who tracked wild horses in the farthest reaches of the world, from Iceland to Namibia, from the steppes of Mongolia to the American plains. A breathtaking contrast to the domesticated variety and that used for equestrian sports, the equines featured here include the Mustang, the Steppe Horse, the Brumby, the Crioulo, the Iceland Pony, the Namibian Horse, and the Maremmano Horse. AUTHOR: For over thirty years, Paolo Manili has been one of Italy?s leading photojournalists to cover horses and equestrian sports. His work is featured in such glossy periodicals as Polo International, Capital, and Gente Viaggi. ILLUSTRATIONS: 206 colour photographs
