The Irish draught is an icon in the Irish landscape. It was the workhorse which pulled the farmer's plough, took the family to church, hunted, was a commercial draft animal and pulled artillery. Today the Irish draught is used for hunting, pleasure, and competition, much valued by a new generation of owners. Here the story of the 'horse of the people' is told before facts and details vanish forever. It is illustrated with wonderful images.
