Method of Equitation Based on New Principles: Francois Baucher: Craig Stevens Translation: Volume 1 (Foundation for the Equestrian Arts: the Old Masters) - Softcover
Synopsis
François Baucher's 1874 edition of "Méthode d'équitation basée sur de nouveaux principes", translated for the Foundation for the Equestrian Arts, by trainer Craig Stevens, a life long student of the French school and an acknowledged modern master of the art of classical riding. This is a comprehensive presentation of the work of Baucher, one of France's most respected horse trainers, who was both revered and reviled in his life time. The controversy continues into present day, yet very few riders (even those with very strong opinions) have ever read the actual words of the master. For a rider interested in classical training, regardless of the lineage you follow, Baucher is a "must read". The 1874 edition is the most comprehensive, as it is the last that Baucher made, completed just before his death in 1873. And the uniquely authoritative translation, presented not by an historian but by a practicing classical trainer, makes this truly a "rider's translation" of this fascinating material.
