Description
Excerpt from The Brookfield Stud of Old English Breeds of Horses
The Preface to this work, and the reprint of ''the Speech and Article appearing at the end of the book, contain my ideas on the subject of the breeds comprised in the Stud, and afford a clear indication of the lines upon which I am proceeding.
The notes on breeding contain such information as I possess with respect to the strains of blood to which the animals belong. Every Hackney breeder who appreciates pedigree owes a debt of gratitude to Mr. H. F. Euren, the able and indefatigable Secretary of the Hackney Society and the compiler of its Stud Book. But there is a large amount of information contained in these notes which has been derived from other and trustworthy sources; and many of the notes contain monographs on subjects of special interest connected with these breeds, of which a list'' is appended on the next page.
