These traits made it the mainstay of the Confederate cavalry during the Civil War and the choice mount of many generals on both sides. As the Industrial Revolution replaced the need for working horsepower, the Saddlebred evolved naturally into recreational activities. Affectionately known as peacock of the show ring, the Saddlebred's beauty, expression, and athleticism epitomize the essence of a show horse. In many ways, the breed's history parallels that of America and unfolds in pictures in Kentucky's Saddlebred Heritage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e James Kemper Millard\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 073854440X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780738544403\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Arcadia Publishing (SC)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/01\/2007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 128\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.74lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.13h x 6.56w x 0.34d","brand":"James Kemper Millard","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43947038572799,"sku":"9780738544403","price":21.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_a9503aba-2632-4837-ab0d-cada273ff752.jpg?v=1681516343","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/kentuckys-saddlebred-heritage-james-kemper-millard-9780738544403","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
