This collection of articles were originally published in equestrian magazines in the early part of the 20th century. Carefully selecting the best articles from our collection we have compiled a series of historical and informative publications on the subject of horse riding. The titles in this range include 'The Use of Horses in the Military,' 'The Sport of Point-to-Point Horse Riding,' 'The Beautiful Sport of Horse Racing,' and many more. Each publication has been professionally curated and includes all details on the original source material. This particular instalment, 'The Sport of Show Jumping and its Techniques' contains a variety of articles on the history and methods of show jumping. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900's and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions.
