Product Description

This is the first book relating to the history of Welsh ponies and cobs to have been written. The author has selected certain Welsh Mountain pony and Welsh cob families which he considers to have had the greatest influence on the development of the Welsh pony and cob breeds. The author mentions pre-historic references and quotes 15th and 16th century Welsh poets whose references to pedigrees are almost certainly the oldest in the United Kingdom and possibly in the world.

About the Author

Wynne Davies was awarded the MBE in 1995 for almost half a century's dedication to Welsh ponies and cobs. Dr Davies joined the Welsh Pony and Cob Society in 1948, has been a Council member since 1955, President in 1984/5 and Publicity Officer since 1978. He is the author of six previous publications for J.A. Allen and has been a regular contributor to equestrian magazines, notably Horse and Hound, for fifty-two years.

Esmor (Ynys Mon, Wales) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Welsh Ponies and Cobs (Allen breed series) (Hardcover)

This is the starting point for all those interested in Welsh Ponies and Cobs. Dr. Wynne Davies has spent a lifetime breeding and writing about these ponies and cobs and has written many books on the subject. All the books are good - but this one is a MUST.

4.0 out of 5 stars Welsh Ponies and Cobs, 4 Jun 2011

fell mate - See all my reviews

This review is from: Welsh Ponies and Cobs: Ceredigion Champions (Paperback)

It was a very interesting and informative book, with some excellent period and recent photos, which allows the reader to compare ponies from over seventy years ago to the present times. All in all it was a very good purchase for the money.

I have not read the book yet, to my disappointment. I ordered it for some Belgian carriage-driving friends I was going to stay with who had just bought a welsh cob mare. Read more
