Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Private Stable: Its Establishment, Management, and Appointments
The horse Shows that are now held annually in the large cities have done much to stimulate an interest in all matters pertaining to the horse. Their influence has been very marked, and its effect is seen in the increased demand for good horses, improved appointments and better horseman Ship. Owners of all classes, but with a common interest at heart, are brought in contact; ideas are interchanged and the opinions of the horse-world are moulded and Shaped into definite form; impractical and pet theories are exposed to common-sense criticism, and standards, more or less rigid, are established by those who have proved themselves best qualified to determine them. Although horse shows aim to provide examples of what is right, yet the public at large is not informed why they are considered 50, and has to turn to other sources for enlightenment. However, that a desire for further information is aroused is an important step in the right direction, and has started a crusade against general ignorance in such matters.
