Horses of the Camargue

As someone who's lived in Provence and visited the Camargue on several occaisions, I can honestly say this is an awesome book. You get a better sense of the horses from the book than from an actual visit. The few times I saw the horses in person was from a great distance as they are so shy around people. I was able to see them in all their majestic glory much better in the book. The photographer spent many months gaining the horses trust and so was able to blend into the background and get shots few people, if any, can. For those who don't know, the Camrague horses are to southern France what the Mustangs are to the western US. If you love horses, great photography, great scenery with a dose of local history/culture then this book is for you. It is definately worth the price and makes a great coffee table book.

Horses of the Camargue is by far the best book of horse photographs I have ever seen.
