A General System of Horsemanship Duke Of Newcastle William Cavendish

Classic Horsemanship from this work dating back to 1658 and the reign of Charles II for the dressage aficionado. A facsimile reproduction of the 1743 Edition.TheHorseStudio.com review: A must read. Some serious wit and humor here that will reverberate through your dressage mind as you recognize some of the material from later masters and authors. Alongside which in this significant landmark work is the lasting and reaching influence of the humane method of training and treating a horse, that any historian or art lover will enjoy as well as the horse rider.

Tips like to make a horse obey the heels - and some super riding exercises and figures that may have been neglected - and some super plates which clearly indicate that the Mikmar roller bits were not the first to coin the technique for the pacifying capability in the mouth of a horse ( see our bit section under 'tack' here at thehorsestudio.com for a full selection of weymouth and snaffle bits and cupreon Mikmar and roller bits). While the olde English letters can be wearisome to read to start, you soon aquire the knack for them - and the material is wonderful.

Hardback book; we also carry most of the classics like L'Hotte, Pluvinel, Podhajsky; and Oliveira in book format as well as DVDs like the Baroque series featuring Oliveira's grandson, classic Brenderup and Kottas.
