“Barbara Knox Homrighaus researched and wrote Silver King: Charles Knox & The American Team Draft Horse 1925-1945, using local history resources and family letters and photographs to describe her grandfather’s role in Iowa in the early development of the only draft horse breed native to the United States.  It was edited and designed by Ruth Homrighaus ’98, daughter of Barbara and Barry Homrighaus ’73.”

“Barbara Knox Homrighaus wrote and self-published a book, Silver King, about the early development of American Cream Draft horses. It is a fascinating mix of the author’s family history and horse breeding that has been carefully researched. Family photos and county maps offer a visual element into the subject matter.”
