Welsh Ponies and Cobs (Allen breed series)

Welsh Ponies and Cobs (Allen breed series)

by WynneDavies (Author)

Synopsis

This is the first book relating to the history of Welsh ponies and cobs to have been written. The author has selected certain Welsh Mountain pony and Welsh cob families which he considers to have had the greatest influence on the development of the Welsh pony and cob breeds. The author mentions pre-historic references and quotes 15th and 16th century Welsh poets whose references to pedigrees are almost certainly the oldest in the United Kingdom and possibly in the world.
