In the book, Gypsy Prince, an innocent horse 
is thrown into WWII. He was not prepared, but he 
adjusts quickly in training camp. Gypsy Prince 
thinks all of the drills are like games. When he 
really goes into war, he learns otherwise.  He 
goes from a Nazi warhorse to a food cart puller. 
He even goes to the American side for a little. 
Gypsy Prince continues wandering, until he finds 
some trace of his old, peaceful life.
 

Opinion: 

I loved this book. I thought it was kind of 
like Black Beauty. A horse goes from owner to 
owner, meeting up with his past now and then. It 
was great. I enjoyed hearing what war was like 
for Gypsy Prince. However, I didn't like that 
the horse was on Germany's side, although I 
guess he really wasn't for the ideas of the 
Nazis.
