The RCMP Musical Ride: The thundering hooves, the skilled riders, and the dazzling pageantry of the Musical Ride have thrilled audiences young and old since it was first performed in 1887. The Ride has taken place in small towns and before the Queen, at joyous times and somber ones, and has become a symbol and source of pride for Canada and its people.

In this moving tribute, fold artist Maxwell Newhouse has captured the spirit of the Ride in words and art. He tells the history of the Ride and the story of the spectacular black horses, their arduous training and sparkling equipment, their Mountie riders in bright scarlet, through black-and-white drawings and captivating full-color art. The intricate footwork of the horses, the gleaming lances of the riders, and the thrilling final charge are brought magically to life in this loving homage.
