Pages are clean and tight. Illustrated with 50+ color photographs of these endearing animals. 'Here is the magic and charm of the carousel animal. These beautifully crafted creatures were very much alive for the delight of children over many decades. A few are still found on operating carousels, but most have become cherished art, now restored as a reminder of the golden age of the carousel. Here is the story of the world's famous carvers and a show of their finest work. This treat will bring back the joy of the carousel ride, on top of a charging steed, whirling toward the brass ring.'
