Clyde B Labrador 10 #1 Posted April 4, 2018 What's the best book available for early Wheel Horse identification and history? Amazon has a book by Mr. Martino that goes for $175 and up ( way way up! ) Is that for real? No problem if it's worth it, just making sure it's not a rip-off or scam. thanks! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KC9KAS 4,741 #2 Posted April 4, 2018 Straight from the horses mouth is probably the best WH history book available. I am not sure how many volumes were put out, but I understand he is not going to do another book. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WHX?? 46,404 #3 Posted April 4, 2018 (edited) Yes that's a little steep for his book Clyde. A guy had one on here awhile back for the same coin. A guy has the right to offer one up for 1500 but that doesn't mean we have to bite. Originals were $50 and the was closing them out for less. He may have a few left wouldn't hurt to ask. I suggest you contact him direct. I misplaced his contact info but possibly one of the other fellas will chime in with it yet. Another thing you could do if he is sold out of them is put an ad in wanted here and a member may have an extra to part with for a RESONABLE margin. Hope you find one it is a good read.
