The hoofbeats of horses have forged a path through history.
Travel through the Renaissance and the Age of Discovery with Romano Imperator; affectionately known as “Rosie” since the color of his haircoat is rose gray. Learn about amazing events, meet remarkable people and find out about the important contributions horses have made throughout history. In the last two books in this series you met Hark and Tyson. They are both Morgan horses. Rosie was born in Spain. He is a PRE (Pura Raza Española - Pure Spanish Horse). You learned about PREs in Dark to Light and you will learn more about them in this book. The Spanish horse was the most sought after horse during the Renaissance so it makes sense that Rosie would tell the story of Armor to Art! The cover depicts Rosie in a parody of one of the most famous paintings in the world – The Birth of Venus by Renaissance artist Sandro Botticelli. This work is significant as it embodies the ideals of Renaissance humanism. This shift in thinking made people look at horses as more than just beasts of burden. The bond between humans and horses deepened during the Renaissance. During the Age of Enlightenment, which includes the Renaissance and the Age of Discovery, cultures are beginning to mingle, horses will mingle too. People are not only sharing innovations and culture but people are also becoming interested in breeding horses in order to create horse breeds with specific needed abilities. Riding horses became not just a necessity but an art form! As usual, horses are going to play an important part in this story of Armor to Art. PAPERBACK EDITION AVAILABLE ON AMAZON

In our last book, Armor to Art, we left off at the end of the Renaissance. In all of the previous books you learned how very important horses have been to the history of the world so far. Horses were critical in warfare and brought cultures together. If you enjoyed learning about Marco Polo’s travels and the Ottoman Empire in Armor to Art, just wait until you learn all about the exploration of the New World and revolutions all around the world – including a different kind of revolution, the Industrial Revolution. And of course….there will be lots of horses! After 6,000 years, the era of the horse is coming to an end but the horse is just as important in this book.... in some ways even more important than ever before! PAPERBACK EDITION AVAILABLE NOW AT
