Synopsis
Excerpt from Elementary Equitation: Principles of Horseback-Riding
I then resolved to write this very small book, giv ing simple and elementary truths on Horsemanship, which I therefore thought might better appeal to the general public, so easily satisfied with elementary, primitive things, at least where riding on horseback is concerned.
I have consequently followed in this book the same progression I observe with pupils who want to learn how to ride merely so as to be able to appear in the Park - the summit of Equestrian ambition of most, and wish to look as well as possible on Horseback With this, in order to combat the erroneous idea that hands are born but cannot be made, I have thrown in a little technical knowledge of the handling of the horse's mouth, and therefore, some practical advice as to the means of improving a rider 3 hands, in fact, of actually giving him good hands. The reader may reach this most desirable result alone if he studies conscientiously, and has at least some natural ability if not, he will supply the deficiency with the help of a good teacher, and obtain the same results.
