reviewed Horse genetics on February 24, 2014 Horse genetics
I was really looking forward to reading this, as I loved studying genetics as part of my degree course and have always been fascinated by the many colours a horse's coat can be. I was sadly disappointed, mainly because I found it so hard to understand. I don't mind a challenge, but I found myself getting very lost, very quickly. I ended up skipping huge sections and just reading the off bit, while looking at the photos. Strangely, for a book on horse coat colour, these were in black and white! Maybe something I would have stuck with if still at college, but too much for the little grey cells today.

There is therefore a need for a book which provides , Horse genetics to the inventory that you are selling on WonderClubX
