Hank Wiescamp Developed the Beautiful Quarter Horses we have Today

Hank Wiescamp was a genius in creating the beautiful Foundation bred American Quarter Horses we have today. I recently purchased one of his last Skipper W Foundation bred geldings. I was thrilled to find The Hank Wiescamp Story and learn the history of my horse and this brilliant breeder. If you have a quarter horse you would love this book!

Great inside look at the "Wiescamp horses".

Hank Wiescamp ultimately breed some of the greatest horses from four registeries - Quarter, Appalossa, Palomino, and Paint. "The Hank Wiescamp Story" allows the reader to understand how and why Hank made many breeding decisions to create the great "Wiescamp horse". After this book, you too will appreciate what Hank Wiescamp has done to create many of the modern breeds.Hats off to Hank...... Highly recommend this book for all. Pictures, pedigrees and stories. However, 207 pages could not begin to touch the surface of the 70 years it took to create the "Wiescamp horse".
