Horses have only been in Aotearoa for a short period of time but have been a big part of people's lives up and down the country since they arrived.
The New Zealand Horse is a new book by author Deborah Coddington and Photographer Jane Ussher
Jane Ussher is one of this country's best photographers, she's now working freelance after almost 30 years with The New Zealand Listener. Deborah Coddington is a writer, journalist, broadcaster and former Member of Parliament and a keen rider - which Jane is not.
