Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the decline of horse breeding in Britain and offers solutions to reverse the trend. The author argues that while Britain was once a leader in horse breeding, today it relies on foreign sources for its equine needs. This decline is attributed to the surge in racehorse breeding, which has led to a narrowing of the gene pool and a lack of available horses for other purposes. The author proposes expanding the range of equestrian activities to include trotting courses and other events that showcase different horse breeds, encouraging the breeding of horses for these activities to meet the diverse needs of society. This book provides a comprehensive examination of horse breeding in Britain, its history, and the factors that have contributed to its decline. The author's insights offer valuable guidance for breeders, horse enthusiasts, and policymakers seeking to restore Britain's equine heritage. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781333646714_0

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the history of horse breeding in Britain and assesses whether contemporary methods are compromising the quality and athleticism of horses. The author argues that excessive focus on thoroughbreds for racing purposes over the past three decades has come at the expense of general utility horses. These horses, intended to perform a variety of tasks and possess significant stamina and strength, have been largely overlooked in favor of thoroughbreds bred primarily for speed. The author contends that restoring a balance between breeding thoroughbreds and general utility horses is essential for preserving the equine heritage and ensuring the availability of high-quality horses for diverse purposes. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
