Description
Excerpt from Horsemanship; Or, the Art of Riding and Managing a Horse: Adapted for the Guidance of Ladies and Gentlemen, on the Road and in the Field; With Instructions for Breaking in Colts and Young Horses
The chief reason why the old system still so generally prevails''is, the great cost of time and money attendant upon a continued series of lessons at the schools; and the cause of our having so many badly trained and ill conditioned horses, 15 the lack of knowledge of the science Of horsemanship and horsebreaking among the generality of horsebreakers themselves. There is scarcely a groom in the land who does not consider himself a most excellent horseman, and competent to be a perfect horsebreaker. If he has served an apprentice ship in connection with a racing stud, his educatlon Is deemed complete; the diploma cannot be controverted, and he becomes the oracle of the surrounding country.
