This antique book contains a detailed guide on the art of taming horses, including the substance of the lectures at the Round House, as well as additional chapters on horsemanship and hunting for the young and timid. A book of timeless value, this text will be of much interest to the amateur equestrian and will also be of value as a reference book to those with more experience. The chapters of this book include: 'The Three Fundamental Principles of the Rarey Theory', 'Heads of the Rarey Lectures', 'Editor's Paraphrase', 'That Any Horse may be Taught Docility', 'That a Horse should be so Handled and Tied as to Feel Inferior to Man', 'How to Drive a Cold from Pasture', 'Powell's System of Approaching a Colt', and many more. Many antique books such as this are increasingly hard to come by and costly, and it is with this in mind that we are proud to republish 'The Art of Taming Horses' here complete with a new introduction on the subject.
