The Harness Horse Walter Gilbey

This special re-print edition of Sir Walter Gilbey's "The Harness Horse" is considered one of the most important works ever published on the carriage or harness horse. First published in 1905, this important work on horses bred for carriages, has not seen the light of day since its early publication. Chapters include Want of Carriage Horses in England, Foreign Horses Coming to England, How To Breed Carriage Horses, Mares Suitable or Breeding, Failures in Producing Carriage Horses, Trotting vs. Galloping Action, Shape and Action of Carriage Horses and more. Note: This edition is a perfect facsimile of the original edition and is not set in a modern typeface. As a result, some type characters and images might suffer from slight imperfections or minor shadows in the page background.
