THE LAST OF THE WILD HORSES is an evocative celebration of seven distinctive wild horses: the fierce Przewalskis of Mongolia, the gentle Tarpans of Poland, the hardy British ponies, the beautiful marsh horses of the French Camargue, the resilient horses of Sable Island, the beleaguered Brumbies of rural Australia, and the spirited American mustangs.

Martin Harbury with photographer Ron Watts, has spent five years studying their way of life. His evocative text explores the origins and behavior of wild horses and looks at each group in its natural habitat. Ron Watts` superb color photographs catch the many moods of these elusive creatures - their wariness of strangers, their fierce protectiveness when challenged, their love of ritual combat, their playfulness, their gentleness and grace. Despite the rigors of their life, they remain a symbol of nobility and freedom in an increasingly urban world.
