Next to my horses, I love my books. These are some of the books in the bpe Library, listed alphabetically by title (I omit the word "The" from the title when in the first position, otherwise most would start with the same word). All have been invaluable in my research into not just the Nafa'a bloodlines, but the heritage our horses have. I encourage you to look beyond the pedigree and explore the rich and colorful history that led to the world's most remarkable animals. Of course, following the library list is the "Wish List," containing the books I wish I owned, mostly unavailable due to scarcity or price. I offer these lists as a guideline for researchers and welcome suggestions for additional material.

The complete Arabian Horse World collection, Arabian Horse Visions, the Khamsat, Arabians magazine, select Arabian Horse News and Arabian Horse Journals, and Egyptian issues of the Arabian Horse Times have all provided a rich source of articles and pictures. I am now adding Saudi ARAMCO World magazines to my collection because of the in-depth articles about the Near/Middle East.

Supplementary Equine Library. These are book about horses not directly related to the Arabian or Arabia.
