Overview

Since the 1947 publication of Marguerite Henry's Misty of Chincoteague, millions of visitors have come to a barrier island between Maryland and Virginia in search of wild horses. Featuring more than 150 full-color photographs, Wild Horses of the Dunes tells the visual story of these wild horses. Since 1924, the horses have been rounded up each July to swim across Chincoteague Bay from Assateague Island to the small town of Chincoteague. This is a book for horse lovers, and for anyone captivated by the beauty of the Eastern Shore and the long-standing traditions of a special place.
