All The Wild Horses By: Dayton O. Hyde, 10 3/4" x12 1/4" coffee table book with photos by Rita and Charles Summers. 208 pages.

Wild horses endure thanks to the likes of old-time cowboy Dayton O. Hyde. In the 1980's, he witnessed some of America's surviving wild mustangs being rounded up and sent to slaughter; it pulled at his heart, and he vowed to do something about it. In 1988, he established The Black Hills Wild Horse Sanctuary to protect these majestic horses. In All the Wild Horses, Dayton shares his personal stories and colorful insights on the natural history, behavior, spirit and survival of these animals. Through his firsthand experience, Dayton knows these horses like few others anywhere. He also examines the plight of other wild horses around the globe – from the famous ponies of Chincoteague and Assateague to the ghostly white horses of the French Camargue and other breeds in Europe, Asia and Africa.

Rita and Charles Summers' glorious photographs of wild horses span the world. Their work has appeared in numerous books and magazines, including National Geographic, Audubon, National Wildlife, International Wildlife, Sierra Club, Nature's Best and innumerable calendars, cards and posters. Charlie was honored as th BBC Wildlife Photographer of the Year.
