The love of horses often finds its expression in the horse barn-in the
grandeur of the architecture, the extravagance of the detail, and the extent of
the comforts that owners lavish on their favorite creatures. The masterpieces of
equine architecture featured in this book attest to that devotion. With luxuries
such as mahogany stalls, Spanish-tiled floors, and the latest in horse
technology and training, these are not your average barns; rather, they attest
to the extremes of elegant simplicity and outrageous glamour that convey a horse
owners devotion, ambition, and style.
From prestigious and well-known
horse barns such as Churchill Downs to private stables nestled in the Colorado
mountains, Ultimate Horse Barns comprises a wide variety of barns certain to
pique any horse owners fancy. Twenty North American barns in all, each one of a
kind, they all have one thing in common-the love, appreciation, and awe of the
horses they house.
