" Mrs. Power O'Donoghue (more power to her — not that she wants it) shows no 

 sign of 'falling off.' Indeed, she shows her readers how to become riders, and to 

 stick on gracefully. She sketches her pupils 'in their habits as they ride,' and 

 gives them a bit of her mind about bits, and tells them about spurs on the spur of 

 a moment." — Ptinch. 



" Mrs. O'Donoghue is great on the subject of a lady's riding-dress, and lays 



down some useful information which should not be forgotten From first to 



last she never errs on the side of anything approaching to bad taste, which is more 

 than can be said for some equestriennes." — Field. 



"It is a characteristic of her book, as of all books of any value, that it has a 

 distinctive character. Sound common sense, and a thoroughly practical way of 

 communicating instruction, are its leading traits. " — Daily News. 



"We venture to think that any clever girl reading what Mrs. O'Donoghue has 

 to say on the subject will learn more than a dozen riding lessons can teach her."
