| Summary | "Horse Stories, and Stories of Other Animals" by Thomas Wallace Knox is a collection of animal anecdotes and experiences, written during the late 19th century. This work primarily focuses on the interactions and intelligence of horses and other quadrupeds, narrated through the experiences of two boys, Charley and George, as they seek to learn about managing horses. The tales highlight themes of kindness and empathy towards animals, shedding light on their remarkable cognitive abilities. At the start of the book, we are introduced to brothers Charley and George, who express a desire for their own horses, influenced by observing a friend riding a pony. Their father, Mr. Graham, encourages their interest and shares anecdotes that demonstrate the intelligence and loyalty of horses, like a carriage horse named Jane that saved a child from harm. The boys eagerly learn about the care of horses and gain insights into the educational processes at a local fire department’s training school, showcasing their journey of discovery about these noble animals and their capacity for gratitude and affection.
