Summary
This article tells the story of the type of horse that was bred to pull the heavy Conestoga wagons which were vital for trade in colonial America. As that mode of transportation changed , the horse disappeared, because horses were bred for specific purposes. There was no longer a need for the "Conestoga horse".
