Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. The great epoch in the history of the horse is at the time of the rise of the indo-germanic nations. Spain before England was the nursery of the fine blooded horse. The northern countries supplied the ponderous horse used for war.
