Product Description
Explores the history and significance of the Irish Draught horse, a breed native to Ireland.
The Irish Draught horse has played a vital role in Irish agriculture and culture, historically used for farming, hunting, and even pulling field artillery. The breed is known for its robust constitution, good temperament, and sound nature. The book by McGrath and Griffith highlights the breed's importance and its evolution as a working horse, as well as its near disappearance with the advent of mechanization.
Mary McGrath, in addition to her writing, has been involved in the Irish Draught Horse Society, serving as the Honorary Secretary. She also established the Irish Horse Museum in Kildare and is a breeder and exhibitor of Irish Draught horses.
