Equitation
by Jean Froissard
|
 |
Here at last is a single volume in which every principal and problem of training, instruction, equitation, school, stables and activities is analyzed and discussed from the viewpoints of all three participants – teacher, rider and horse.
Jean Froissard, one of France's most dynamic riding masters, speaks here to the young instructor who more often than not finds himself entrusted with beginning riders and with horses he must train or, worse, retrain. Yet he also speaks to the young horseman, for in explaining to the teacher what it is that makes his horses and pupils tick, by the same token he explains to the pupil the functioning and motivation of his horse and teacher. Though he discusses with remarkable insight the philosophy and psychology of this partnership, he gives his main attention to its practice and the day-to-day contingencies in which the young horseman and horsemaster most need advice.
Of special interest to instructors and directors of riding schools will be the last section of the book, "The Lighter Side," in which the author gives detailed information and advice on the very delicate problems of the closely related matters of stable management, organization of activities, and human relations in a special environment.
Equitation is generously illustrated with diagrams, drawings, photographs, and reproductions of paintings and engravings, some famous, some little-known.
