This collection of articles were originally published in equestrian magazines in the early part of the 20th century. Carefully selecting the best articles from our collection we have compiled a series of historical and informative publications on the subject of horse riding. The titles in this range include 'Horse Riding Clothes of the Past, ' 'The Sport of Polo, ' 'Holidays on Horseback, ' and many more. Each publication has been professionally curated and includes all details on the original source material. This particular instalment, 'The Equipment of Horsemanship' contains a variety of articles on the clothing, saddles, bits, and other equestrian equipment. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900's and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive.
