Essential Fergus the Horse

In the late 1990s, a little bay horse with white socks and a blaze was born. Dubbed Fergus, he has now traveled the world many times over by print, web, and satellite, inspired a line of merchandise, and gained a devoted following in the hundreds-of-thousands on Facebook and other social media. Who is this horse and how can we explain his magnetism? What makes him so special?Fergus the Horse (Equus hilarious) is the creation of Jean Abernethy, and the truth is, he isnt meant to represent any one breed or discipline. Perhaps its this generic everyhorse quality thats led to his popularity. When fans write, Fergus reminds me of my horse, I cannot be paid a higher compliment, says Abernethy. And its his expressiveness, honesty, charm, and keen sense of humor that truly wins our hearts.Now Abernethy has brought together the backstory of Fergus the Horsehow he came to be, his early years, the history of his friendsand combined it with his greatest hits, including most-loved comic strips, some personal sketches, and brand new additions. The result is a lively, colorful, highly illustrated treasury that will entertain anyone with an eye for a horse and a need for a laugh.
