"Justin Morgan, Founder of His Race: The Romantic History of a Horse" by Eleanor Waring Burnham is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book chronicles the life and legacy of a remarkable horse named True, the progenitor of the Morgan horse breed, while also exploring themes of friendship, loyalty, and the human-animal bond. It provides a detailed narrative that blends both historical facts and charming anecdotes about the horse and its influences on equestrian culture. The opening of the narrative introduces readers to True, a colt born near Springfield, Massachusetts, in the late 18th century, as well as his mother, Gipsey. The chapter paints a vivid picture of True's early life, his playful personality, and his developing relationships with the natural surroundings and other animals, including a dog and a cat. As True grows, he learns valuable lessons about cooperation, obedience, and bravery, reflecting the bond he shares with humans, particularly his attentive master, Silas Whitman. The chapter concludes with a burgeoning sense of adventure as True begins to understand his place in the larger world, foreshadowing the challenges and triumphs that will shape his legacy.
