Firstly I want to recommend Stephen Budiansky's excellent The Nature of Horses to anyone, and everyone. It's a great book, interesting not just to horse-lovers but to anyone who's interested in the way animals work and think. It covers a lot of ground about evolution, physiology and animal behaviour.
The Nature of Horses
Secondly, I want to know if anyone knows of a similar book covering Camels? Or just a really good book about camels?

No, but I would like to congratulate you for providing the oddest thread title that I've seen in a long time.

Thanks for the tip it sounds like a great book.
Sorry, don't know of a camel book. Somehow, I don't think camels are quite as evocative an animal to humans as horses have been.
