The Training and Management of Horses

About this book

"The Training and Management of Horses" is a comprehensive handbook for horse owners, farriers, and veterinarians, first published in 1904. It concentrates on the relationship between man and horse, and explores the ways we interact with the animals, giving advice for training, management, care and maintenance, and much more. A fascinating and practical text, this book is highly recommended for modern horse owners and is not to be missed by collectors of vintage equestrian literature. Contents include: "The Power of Reason over Instinct", "Incident of an Officer's Horse", "The Circus Performing Horse", "Another Test of Reason", "Intelligence of the Horse", "Kindness versus Cruelty", "The basis of Management", "Variations of Temperament in Men and Horses", "Sympathy between Horse and Man", etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in a modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on maintaining and caring for horses.
