Excerpt from First-Hand Bits of Stable Lore
The chapters epitomize thirty years' active per sonal experience with every kind of horse for every conceivable purpose, and the deductions drawn are in no sense theoretical. Such a book would have greatly helped the author when he began as a youngster, and it is his earnest hope that it may prove of use to others.
