The book serves as a comprehensive guide to horse training and care, covering everything from selecting a suitable horse, to the proper feeding and grooming techniques, to the art of riding and controlling a horse. Xenophon draws upon his own experiences as a cavalryman and horse trainer, as well as the wisdom of other experts in the field, to provide practical advice and insights on all aspects of horsemanship. The book is notable for its emphasis on the humane treatment of horses and the importance of building a strong relationship between horse and rider. It is a timeless resource for anyone interested in the art and science of horsemanship.To meet the case in which the horseman may chance to be leading his horse with the left hand and carrying his spear in the right, it would be good, we think, for every one to practise vaulting on to his seat from the right side also. In fact, he has nothing else to learn except to do with his right limbs what he has previously done with the left, and vice versa. And the reason we approve of this method of mounting is[8] that it enables the soldier at one and the same instant to get astride of his horse and to find himself prepared at all points, supposing he should have to enter the lists of battle on a sudden.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
