ARABIANS - EXQUISITE HORSE - EXQUISITE PUBLICATION!!, Nov 6 2000
By Louise Stange-Wahl - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Arabians From the Camera of Johnny Johnston (Hardcover)
When I gazed upon the cover of this book, I immediately put on my film-handler's gloves so no fingerprints would contaminate this true work of photographic art! I have had the pleasure of sharing my life with Arabian horses, both full-blooded and partial, and their unique equine essence has been powerfully translated by photographer Johnny Johnston and author Maggie Nicol. The portraits of some of the most honored and esteemed Arabian stallions are breathtaking..they leap out of the pages at you. The more casual pasture and candid shots are pastoral and touching. I especially loved the mare/foal photographs. Anyone who has had the moving experience of helping your Arabian mare care for her colt or filly and watching them grow and prosper into their magnificent adult years cannot help but be thrilled by these representations...they are universally Arabian! Another interesting addition to this work are the descriptions of how Mr. Johnston obtained these incredible pictures. The stories behind the photos are both humerous and helpful. I plan to use some of the tips when I photographic my own special Arabians.In closing, I must say that even though I have been a collector of books on Arabian horses for 40 years, this book is the most beautiful. It begs to be opened and enjoyed again and again. I plan of purchasing several more for my horsey friends..I know it will be their favorite holiday gift! If you love horses, particularly Arabians, you will treasure this photographic collection for years to come...I can't wait for the NEXT book!

This wonderful, photographic book has captured the spirit and essence of the Arabian horse. Johnny Johnston is one of the foremost equine photographers in the world. M.L. Nicol has put together a delightful and beautiful collage of Johnny's work. A must see and read for the Arabian horse lover!

A beautiful book, July 14 2000
By Joe Witherwax - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Arabians From the Camera of Johnny Johnston (Hardcover)
I bought this book as a gift for someone else, and though I know little about horses, the photography is spectacular. As has been said in earlier reviews, this book brings a whole new appreciation of Arabians, even to an uninitiated person like myself. A definite must-see if you are at all interested in Arabians. By the way, it makes a great gift too :o)
