| GORMAN, JOHN A The Western Horse Interstate Printers & Publishers Inc, Danville, IL, 1967, 5th Ed. Hardbound. It is the purpose of this book to describe the breeds and types of horses that are found in the Western States, and to present methods of training.

An attempt is made to show how various breeds have been combined to develop new breeds and the types of grade range horses that are a product of the Western States. One chapter deals with wild horses, a picturesque group of light horses found to some extent in almost all Western States. The horses role is discussed in recreation, shows, rodeos, and races.

| HILLENBRAND, LAURA Seabiscuit: An American Legend Ballantine Books, NY, 2001, 1st Pbk Ed 6th Pr. Paperback. Seabiscuit was one of the most electrifying and popular attractions in sports history and the single biggest newsmaker in the world in 1938, receiving more coverage than FDR, Hitler, or Mussolini. But his success was a surprise to the racing establishment, which had written off the crooked-legged racehorse with the sad tail. Three men changed Seabiscuit's fortunes: Charles Howard was a onetime bicycle repairman who introduced the automobile to the western United States and became an overnight millionaire. When he needed a trainer for his new racehorses, he hired Tom Smith, a mysterious mustang breaker from the Colorado plains. Smith urged Howard to buy Seabiscuit for a bargain-basement price, then hired as his jockey Red Pollard, a failed boxer who was blind in one eye, half-crippled, and prone to quoting passages from Ralph Waldo Emerson. Over four years, these unlikely partners survived a phenomenal run of bad fortune, conspiracy, and severe injury to transform Seabiscuit from a neurotic, pathologically indolent also-ran into an American sports icon.
