The Lost War horses of Cairo by Grant Hayler Menzies is a really good read, and a donation goes to the Brooke too when you buy a copy.
I have a copy of this. If anyone would like to read it I will send it to you for free - this is how I received it (from someone in an FB group) so I'd love to pay it forward, as it were. Just drop me a PM if anyone's interestedI haven't read it for a while, but I remember enjoying the Pullein-Thompsons' autobiography - Fair Girls and Grey Horses.
Ooh no I didnt. Read the first 3 as a teenager.Did you realise that K M Peyton eventually wrote a fourth book in the Flambards series, "Flambards Divided"? Ties up all the agonising loose ends..
Is it not a bit of a harrowing read? I couldn't even finish watching the film war horse....The Lost War horses of Cairo by Grant Hayler Menzies is a really good read, and a donation goes to the Brooke too when you buy a copy.
My all time favourite book of any genre is The Silver Brumby. It's recently been reprinted and there's plenty of old copies on ebay. The life story of a cream brumby colt in the High Country of Australia, very like Black Beauty.
There's a whole series that follows his foals and grand foals.

I read this some years ago and really enjoyed it. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Darkling-K...=UTF8&qid=1541487653&sr=8-2&keywords=darklingWhat it says really, any recommendations of good horse-related books, be they autobiographies, fact or fiction to curl up with during the dark nights.
Nags to Numbnuts by Skint Dressage Daddy (Daniel Skinner) - you will have a really good giggle!
