Frog The Horse That Knew No Master Vintage Horse Book

Famous Horse Stories

By Colonel S.P. Meek
Publisher: Grosset & Dunlap, 1933, ISBN: none given
A wild horse is "condemned to be shot for viciousness", when an officer steps in and claims the horse. They form a strong friendship that takes them many places. Under its deceptive cover of a jumping horse lies one of the most enchanting period tales of a military horse that was ever read. Author Colonel S.P. Meek has painted a collection of short stories based on an army horse that he knew during peace-time in Panama. Frog was a real Arabian horse that he knew between 1919 and 1920 when he was in command of the Empire's sub-post. Frog's legendary trick of jumping straight forward without any visible preparation gave him his name and appears during some of the horse's antics during the book. Great book for a person looking for something a little different than the modern horse stories. It combines jumping, adventure, sabotage, polo, exotic places, racing, and a hearty dose of old-fashioned humor. As it was written many decades ago it reads differently than modern books, more like a cross between Hemingway and Dorothy Lyons. Full color cover(no dust jacket), wear to edges & spine, letters in FROG colored in & outlined in red, names written in pen inside front cover, copyright date of 1933 & the dedication are all circled in pen, top of pages are reddened & have a name written in pen when viewed from above with book closed.
