A horse clopped along the street recently. He exhibited workmanlike qualities. He pulled people in a sleigh. A true one-horse open sleigh. Staggering.
But horses changed the complexion of the American West. Apparently. Conventional wisdom suggests horses came, via the Spanish, to the West in the 14-1500s. Then the Comanches adopted the horse and became the baddest of the bad-ass Indians.
