From the time they were first domesticated to the invention of the wheel, saddle, bit, and bridle; horses brought far-flung lands closer together at the speed of a gallop. Trade, agriculture, transportation, and more were expanded in new ways--all made possible by the power of the horse. \u003cbr\u003e In dazzling spreads packed with maps, sidebars, and other hidden gems, explore the special connection between horses and humans.
