This is the first book in the Hoofbeats through History series. Horses have been an important part of human history. ​The path through history is paved with hoofbeats. ​We can't wait for you to travel through time with us and learn about amazing events, meet remarkable people and discover the important contributions horses have made throughout history.

Hark! Follow My Hoofbeats is the story of how HD Harkness, a Morgan horse, came to be. The story is told from his perspective. From the Dawn Horse 55 million years ago to the Morgan horse of today, his story traces the evolution of the horse from the small, dog-sized, forest dwelling Eohippus to the perfect package of strength, speed, courage and beauty found in the horse of today.

Hark will introduce you to horses in Ancient Times, the Middle Ages and the Age of Discovery. Learn why wars were waged and laws were made all because of horses. Then journey to the Americas with Hark and learn about the development of early American horse breeds, in particular, the Morgan horse. Hark traces the history of the Morgan horse breed by introducing you to horses in his sire line and then shares some of his adventures with you.

By the time you reach the end of this remarkable story you will know how Hark came to be and why the domestication of the horse was the most important event in human history.
