ALERT !! Stallions of the Quest ALERT !!

[Terry Wallace]

If you have been wanting a copy of the book "STALLIONS OF THE QUEST", Published by La Tierra publishing (The Goldberg's) that features Paso Finos photographed by Robert Vavra...originally published at $75.00...
BUT...IF YOU ACT NOW...you can get a copy for a mere $16.95....
please go to www.hamiltonbook.com click on animals on the home page, and horses on the next page, and scan down (its alphabetical) to Stallions Of The Quest... and get ya one! I got TWO one for myself and I thought it would surely make a real nice gift for a Paso owning friend....

Just thought I'd pass that along....GREAT price!!! Get one before it is gone....

Anybody here already have one? Do you like it? I have not been able to get my hands on one to even have a look....

I almost whizzed when I saw this! I ordered one and called my friend who owns a gelding that is actually in the book. Almost all of the horses in the book were from Paso Fino Del Fuego. WOW!!!!!!! COOL BEANS!

Thanks Terry. 8-)

[Terry Wallace]

I thought they are from La Tierra Paso Finos (?) owned by the publishers..no (?)

I found this picture of Gail's horse. His name is Tesoro ...something or other. He is a gelding in this picture. I wonder if I will recognize his picture in the book???

Bobby Yuntis & Micheal Bruce used to train & show their horses at their farm in MA. There was a split up of sorts and now La Tierra doesn't have horses there anymore. Erin probably knows more abut it than me.

A couple of years ago, I looked through the book at Bobby's place and he told me all about the photo shoots. Cool stuff!

[Terry Wallace]

SUPER ! I can't wait to get it.....!

Terry,
Thanks for the heads up. I just ordered one. I have his book on Unicorns, it is stunning. I believe I have looked at this book but passed it by due to price. Any of Vavras books are true "coffe table" books. His photography is amazing.

I got mine at a trail ride silent auction last year for $25. It is wonderful.

The book is also at Barnes & Noble for $14.95. I had ordered one over the net and then found it in the store. Bought one for me and one for my friend. It's a wonderful book.

The co-owner on my dog is a friend of Robert Varva's and he has all his books. I really like the one on Cats.

[Beth B]

Just ordered one too - thanks so much for letting us know!

[DSDECKERT]

Damn, I'm the sucker who paid $75 for it - story of my life! This is why I'll never be able to retire!!!! It's a great book though.

[lisa l aka marci]

Don;t feel bad - I have one too....going to get another one though!

[DSDECKERT]

Yep, I ordered two more for gifts! Every time my Paso friends come over they are looking at it.

[pasogalinbama]

Who owns Tesoro del Norte? I rode him quite a bit in 2003. He was a handful then. How is he doing? Would love to see recent pictures of him.

All of the horses in the Varva book belong to Stan and Betty (Or at least they used to - before they sold some of them them.)

I've had a copy since 2003 and it is on my coffee table. It is a good source of conversation when I have guests that don't understand horses or pasos.

I got my book today. I love the pictures (tried not to notice the nose scars and the eggbar shoes) but I wish there were captions so we know who we are looking at. I was trying to find Tesoro, but all chestnut horses look alike in the book. :lol:

*side note: My book smells like mold in a big way. Pheww!

[Fino1]

MOLD???
I sure hope mine won't smell .......yikes........ya gotta wonder IF that's why the price is so reasonable?
Hummmmm???

[Barbwire]

I am very sensitive to smells, and sometimes people don't know what the heck I am talking about when I say something stinks. Maybe other people won't smell the mold, but it is very strong to me.
