"God forbid," R. B. Cunninghame Graham wrote, "that I should go to any heaven in which there are no horses." Other horse lovers will cite the Arabian proverb: The wind of heaven is that which blows between a horses ears.

These stalwarts of the farm and ranch or cowboy lore and farmgirl passion appear in striking images here alongside quotes from writers who have celebrated the draft horse and the stallion of the farm, the boon companion, and trusty servant of those who work the land.
