NOTE: This was an ex-library book. See pics. The Mexican charreada, the father of the American rodeo, in many respects require more skills and is more exciting. Author, James Norman, who has lived in Mexico for many years, introduces you to the charro, the Mexican rider who has been called the most skilled in the world. Today amateur horsemen who belong to the Mexican charro associations perform in numerous cities nearly every Sunday. The lineage of the Spanish horses that were brought to the New World and spread throughout North and South America is a part of Mr. Norman's fascinating story. RARE-HARD to find book.
