viii PREFACE 



I have had fifty-six years' experience in it and across country. Why do the French, 

 Belgian, and Russian horsemen beat us at Olympia ? Because they study the sub- 

 ject and make use of the school, whilst we are apt to think that we have nothing 

 to learn. 



Money spent on horses is well spent, and is always better than half the money 

 spent on a doctor's bill. There is no finer health-giving exercise in the world. No 

 one who has the opportunity to take it can ever say, " Oh, what can I do to-day ? "
