Strong enough to carry the weight of a knight in full armor, these horses became famous as the tallest and the most robust of all the horse breeds. Written in a friendly style by J. Albert Frost, the work was directed at the farmers. He chose a lucid manner to write as he knew farmers like himself appreciated simple language. The author wrote it as a kind of concise record of all that the Shire breeders and exhibitors had accomplished with their animals till then. This book was published in 1915, just six months into the First World War. Thus, one can also read about Frost's expectations from the future where he hopes that the horses can stop moving guns and return to their farm labor or to carrying cargo wagons in the cities or to whatever job they had before the war.
