Book Overview

by Anastasija Ropa (Author)

A rich history of how the bonds between horses and people shaped the Middle Ages.

This book explores the role of horses across the global medieval world. Covering the early medieval period to the late Middle Ages, Anastasija Ropa examines how horses shaped societies, warfare, and culture as well as how their legacy persists in equestrian sports today.

Drawing on little-known primary sources, artifacts, and the author's own experience with historical horsemanship, the book offers a vivid account of the deep connection between medieval people and horses. Combining scholarly insight with practical knowledge, this is the most comprehensive study of medieval horses in Europe and Asia to date.
