This was a really interesting history graphic that covered the Wild West mythos, Native American history, colonization, and more. It is written in the narrative framework of having a couple of characters narrate the events of the story and provide context, which works pretty well. This one was also divided into chapters, which made stopping and starting really nice! A good option for upper elementary and middle school and up graphic nonfiction--readers will learn a lot!

Interesting read on history of mustangs with slightly annoying narrators - but will likely work for the intended audience.

Love the detailed illustrations but this was a real snoozer for me. Too much text about horse history minutea and a couple of bizarre "narrator" characters. They were annoying and made no sense to me in this story.

A good dive into the surprisingly complicated history of horses in North America. The art is excellent, with decent flow between panels, dialog, and graphics. I'm excited to read more in this new series, as I already love the Science Comics series!
