We are just getting in to owning American Paint horses. This is a good comprehensive book about the breed.
Excellent if you want to research foundation paint horses.

I can't count how many times I've used this book to research foundation paint lines. I find it invaluable if you are looking to research your pedigrees. Photos are color and very good. Highly recommended for any paint horse owner - learn the history of your paint horse breed.
Good Reference, discussion on coat patterns.

A good reference on some of the foundation paint horses and their roots. Some pictures are labled incorectly (tobiano vs overo). Good information on Painted Robin and Mr Jae Bar. Not current on the newer sires impacting the breed.
