Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Analysis of Horsemanship, Vol. 1 of 3: Teaching the Whole Art of Riding, in the Manege, Military, Hunting, Racing, and Travelling System; Together With the Method of Breaking Horses, for Every Purpose to Which Those Noble Animals Are Adapted AT a period when gentlemen find it ne cessary and expedient to discipline themselves as soldiers, for protecting us 'from foreign and domestic enemies, I thought a work of this kind might prove acceptable to the cavalry. Had it come out a few years sooner, there might have been a, greater demand; but rid ing at all times will be the pursuit, recrea tion, and pleasure of those whose lcircum stances in the early stages 'of life will per mit. And nothing distinguishes the gentle man more than ease, grace, and elegance on horseback. The following sheets, therefore; I hope, will be found serviceable to those who wish'to acquire the true principles by study as well as practice.
