History Comics is proving to be a fun and informational series of educational graphic novels. This one is about horses and how their history in North America ties in so tightly with that of Native Americans for much of it. Unfortunately, both horses and Indigenous people are exploited, controlled and betrayed, and the book works to tone down the horror of all that was involved there for its audience of children, choosing to focus in its final third on Velma "Wild Horse Annie" Johnston and her uplifting crusade to save the mustangs from extermination in the 1960s and '70s.

As is common in these educational graphic novels, the book is hosted by a trio of fictional characters, two guys who try a little too hard to be comic relief, and a talking horse who knows everything. ( )
