Synopsis:

This is a book for everyone who has anything to do with horses, and will bring pleasure and interest to all lovers of animals and sport. In this book the many different breeds and all their various uses, whether it be winning vast sums of money on the race course or in the rodeo ring, or teaching small children to ride in the field at home, are described in seven fascinating chapters by well known British and American authors. 146 pictures including 40 in colour illustrate every aspect of horses and riding and there is a special section showing the leading world show jumpers in action. Two experts write on the exciting world of thoroughbred racing in America and Europe and include lively accounts of its development over the centuries and of the exploits of past racehorses. For those who ride for pleasure there is a very informative account of the activities of the Pony Clubs all over the world, and, by the same author, a comprehensive description of all main breeds of horses and ponies. The very important part that horses have played in history is not forgotten, and finally, there is a chapter covering all the basic points on how to look after both horses and ponies at home.

The Bookworms Mission:

We strive to reduce unnecessary landfill by taking used books, second-hand books, paperback books, hardback books, pre-loved books, great reads and recycled books and then redistributing them throughout New Zealand, Australia and the rest of the world. Readers can connect online with book titles, helping them find new homes, and support reusing and re-loving books that are affordable. At Bookworms you’ll find cheap books, hidden gems and even some lost treasures. We have a passion for sustainability, being eco-friendly, eco-conscious and we aim to incorporate that into all that we do.
