"The principal aim and purpose of this book is to put into permanent and historical form, material dealing with the introduction of the Arabian horse into America and his influence upon light horse breeds." The author spent over a dozen years extracting much of his material from moldy old sporting papers, privately-printed sales catalogues, stud books and archaic breeding records which dated back as far as 1730. The net result of his investigation was a fine book of 308 pages, which contains an abundance of details and fragments of information about the early Arabian bloodstock in America. Although its sparse illustrations are not exceptional, Conn's book served as a point of embarkation for many later authors and is a worthwhile addition for anyone interested in the history of the breed."
