Today, it is universally recognized that the Arabian horse is a horse with certain unique characteristics. What is less well known is the history of the Arabian horse and its fight to retain its purity and its very survival. In this book the autthor has set out to record the story from pre-biblical times to the present day. It is a record of pilgrimage which began in the desert. Many extracts from contemporary diaries and traveller's accounts, including those of Lady Ann Blunt and her husband Wilfrid Scawen Blunt--to when the world owes a debt than can never be repaid for the survial and preservation of the Arabian breed.
