Highland Ponies and Some Reminiscences of Highlandmen - Paperback

by John M. MacDonald (Author)

"Highland Ponies" is a detailed guide to the different varieties of ponies found in the Highlands of Scotland, along with interesting anecdotes and observations by the author. For each type of pony treated there is a photograph and description, including information relating to history, breeding, and more. Contents include: "Island Ponies", "The Ponies of Skye", "The Ponies of Uist", "The Ponies of Barra", "The Ponies of Rhum", "The Ponies of Mull", "The Ponies of Arran", "The Ponies of Lewis and Harris", "The Ponies of Tiree", "The Ponies of Islay", "Shetland Ponies", "Mainland Ponies", "The Atholl Ponies", "The Applecross Stud", "Clenartney Forest Stud", etc. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive.
