1. Love this book. Even though we read all we could on these horses, the book had information we did not know about them. Glad we bought it.

4 comments about A Century of Belgian Horses in America.

1. A very informative volume packed with hard to find information and photos. Detailed histories of the horses, their breeders and their exhibitors is included. As a member of a family once deeply involved with these fine work horses this book provided me with information and photos that I was unable to find anywhere else. With the principal people involved with the establishment of this breed in America diminishing with time, it should become an ever more valuable resource.



2. I have been involved with belgain horses all my life. Studying pedigrees was limited, until I got this book. Nearly every horse I wish to find out more about is in here including their pictures. It's a resource I would not want to be without. I hope Maurice B. Tellen writes a sequel. This is probably the best book you will ever find on the American history of the belgian horse. He is also the founder of the Draft Horse Journal, a magazine published quarterly (anyone involved in the draft horse business should have it).



3. It is amazing that Mr. Telleen could put so much information in a well illustrated book like that. For someone who is interested in "Belgian horses" it is a must. For someone interested in "horses" it is a sign to get cheap information. Hope that I can find more books on Belgians in America. I do not mean only horses but also Belgian people overthere. I was in contact with someone who's father brought Belgian horses to Canada and The USA before WWI. Is there anyone by the way who know horseseller Vandenbroucke and Delannoy?



4. Mr Telleen put a lot of time and research into this excellent book. It has literally hundreds of photos of breed-building horses and their owners and breeders. The text comes from issues of the Draft Horse Journal, the Belgian Review, and the Breeder's Gazette. Anyone seriously interested in the history and development of the Belgian breed in America should have this book. It is WELL worth the price! My only complaint is that it is in paperback format, which is not as hardy IMO as a hardback book. All in all it is an excellent reference that I highly recommend.
