Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the origin and history of the English Thoroughbred, examining the influence of Arabian horses. The author argues that the modern Thoroughbred is not truly purebred, as Eastern blood was abandoned in favor of horses of mixed lineage after the time of Flying Childers, a dominant Thoroughbred racer in the 18th century. The book delves into the historical context of horse breeding in England, tracing the introduction of Eastern bloodlines and their initial impact on the development of the Thoroughbred. The author posits that the decline in pure Arabian blood has led to a loss of certain desirable traits, and advocates for a return to the original breeding practices that produced horses like Flying Childers. This fascinating and deeply researched book offers valuable insights into the history and genetics of the English Thoroughbred.
