Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Highways and Horses Should it be argued that the condition of the highways is a matter of interest only to a very small portion of the community, I can give a very conclusive and unequivocal reply to such a statement; let those who feel no interest in the condition of the highways cease to make use of them. If we require any proof of the influence their use exercises over the comfort and convenience of our lives, let us imagine a time when we are deprived of their use; let us imagine a snow-storm of such terrific violence and intensity, and lasting so long, that every road' both of town and country is blockaded and rendered impassable for a month or more. What then would be the result of such a state of things? Would not every man, woman, and child throughout the kingdom feel then the vital importance of this means of communication of which they were deprived?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Horses and Roads: Or How to Keep a Horse Sound on His Legs IT is a generally acknowledged fact that large numbers of horses are worn out in the feet and legs at a premature age, whilst nearly all are frequently laid off work by lameness; and these two misfortunes for the poor animals appear to be accepted as unavoidable for them. To combat this belief, these papers were written. On their first appearance they excited a certain amount of interest, and several gentlemen put to practical experiment the principles advanced. The results obtained by three of them are given, by their kind permission, in the Appendix. It is not attempted to palm off any patent upon the public, as the author has nothing to sell, and can be neither benefited nor prejudiced in any way by the adoption or rejection of his principles. He has written from disinterested motives and he has been rewarded, before the book is published by the knowledge that many horses are already reaping benefit from his efforts in their favour.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Herds and Flocks and Horses Thousands upon thousands of splendid young men, manly, level headed fellows, have been prevented from developing the best there is in them from this very cause, and made to pursue a course that has been against their natural tendencies and best judgment, and who, after honestly working out their very souls, have never succeeded in doing anything more than or dinary, while, if they had been permitted to follow the normal and natural tendencies of their own inclinations, would have blossomed into something worth while, and left behind them names and records that would have been written down. Not only would they have done this, but they would have done it with a fraction of the labor, an atom-of the wear and tear, and with a pleasure and delight that would have made their lives a dream in comparison, and their path along a dower-grown lane, instead of over an uphill road strewn with rock and boulders.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Things Worth Knowing About Horses Having said so much about harness horses, I am induced to mention certain habits many horses have that are very annoying. Hugging the pole is one. It greatly annoys the other horse, and' he will pro bably learn to do the same thing, not from imitation, but from leaning inwards so as to enable him the better to stand against the other leaning on him. I have often seen a pair of pieces thus going, each leaning on the other, till they might be figuratively likened to a pair of open compasses. It is extremely dangerous in frosty weather, or where the road Or pavement is from any cause slippery. It has the effect of causing the pole horses in descending a hill to draw straight from the pole, by which they are at their full length; whereas, horses going (as they should do) a little wider than on ordinary occasions.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Horse and His Rider: Or, Sketches and Anecdotes of the Noble Quadruped and of Equestrian Nations The ancient heroes generally leaped on their horses' backs; or their spear, if they carried one, had a loop, or projection, about two feet from the bottom, which served them as a step. The horse was sometimes trained to lower his neck and back, or to kneel down for his rider; and both in Greece and Rome the local magistracy were bound to see that blocks for mounting from (what the Scotch call loupin-on-stanes) were placed along the roads at convenient distances. The great, however, thought it more dignified to use living blocks, and to climb into their seats, by setting their feet on the bent backs of their Slaves and many who could not command such costly help, used to carry a light ladder about with them - a curious piece Of horse furniture' About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Horse: Its Habits, Diseases and Management, in the Stable, and on the Road, With Advice to Purchasers IN all nations, and in all ages, the horse has been esteemed as one of the noblest and most valuable ani mals of the brute creation. It is unnecessary for the object of the present work to make any particular allu sion to the pride and admiration in which he was held in ancient Greece and Rome, and indeed among every warlike people. Caligula, it is recorded, invested his horse with the dignity of a consul. Innumerable passages might be quoted from the poets descriptive and illustrative of the qualities Of this beautiful quadruped; but we shall confine ourselves, in this introductory matter, to a citation from the Book of Job. The following verses are so applicable to our subject, and so sublime in conception and expression, that it would be almost an unpardonable Omission not to lay them before the reader, who need not be told that.
