Hopped around too much on various topics. I think most of this I didn't know and was needed for today. This covers both animal and human rights. ( ) History Comics is proving to be a fun and informational series of educational graphic novels. This one is about horses and how their history in North America ties in so tightly with that of Native Americans for much of it. Unfortunately, both horses and Indigenous people are exploited, controlled and betrayed, and the book works to tone down the horror of all that was involved there for its audience of children, choosing to focus in its final third on Velma "Wild Horse Annie" Johnston and her uplifting crusade to save the mustangs from extermination in the 1960s and '70s. As is common in these educational graphic novels, the book is hosted by a trio of fictional characters, two guys who try a little too hard to be comic relief, and a talking horse who knows everything. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

"Learn how wild mustangs were first introduced to America and how they still roam free today. On the North American plains, wild mustangs have roamed for generations ... shaping human history and struggling to survive it. For the Spanish, they were a tool of conquest. For Native Americans, they brought on a new way of life where horsemanship and horse-trading were central. And for the entire world, wild mustangs became a renowned wonder of the American West. There are still thousands of mustangs in the wild today, but they struggle to survive in an ever-changing landscape and their future is by no means guaranteed."--Publisher description.
