Gallop through history to learn about Alexander's special bond with his horse, an extraordinary stallion named Bucephalus.

Alexander's partnership with the horse, one of the most famous horses of antiquity and a horse whose name we actually know, was the inspiration for the children's story "The Black Stallion."

The hippologist Dr. Carolyn Willekes shows how history continues to inspire and echo through time.
