Front Jacket Excerpt:
"BEST HORSE STORIES is a diverse collection of tales about all different
breeds. You'll root for Kipling's The Maltese Cat, an appropriately
uncommon name for a polo pony who inspires his team of underdogs in the
heat of the match. How Mr. Pickwick Udertook to Drive and Mrs. Winkle to
Ride share-in pure Dickensian style the humor-the tale of "four friends and
their four-footed companion," and their lesson is how difficult it can be
to get to your destination if your horse does't want to take you. And
Herriot's An Expensive Operation reevaluates who is the higher and who the
lower of beasts when a veterinarian has to deal with a beautiful and noble
horse for a patient, but a client who's as stubborn as a mule."
"The 18 stories in this collection represents the imaginations of writers
renowned for their horse tales..."
