OverviewOriginally published around the turn of the century, the author offers advice based on a lifetime's experience of riding and hunting. The first sections of the book focus on horsemanship and the latter half primarily on the hunting field. The book has much advice and information of practical use to today's rider. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive.
