"The Breaking of the Colt" by J. H. Walsh is a captivating exploration into the art of equine training, specifically focusing on the revolutionary methods introduced by Mr. Rarey and his partner, Mr. Goodenough, in the mid-19th century. This historical article delves into the world of horse training during a time when traditional methods were being challenged by innovative techniques that captured the imagination of British horse enthusiasts. Walsh, writing under his famed pseudonym 'Stonehenge', provides a detailed account of the groundbreaking approach that promised to transform even the most unmanageable horses into obedient and reliable companions. The book highlights the dynamic shift from conventional breaking techniques to a more humane and effective system, epitomised by the training success of vicious and notorious horses like Stafford, Cruiser, and a gray colt from Piccadilly. Aimed at equestrians, historians, and animal psychology enthusiasts, this book not only chronicles the historical significance of Rarey's methods but also offers insights into the evolving human-animal relationship.

John Henry Walsh (1810 - 1888) was prolific English writer of sports often writing under the pseudonym "Stonehenge". Other notable works by this author include: The Dog in Health and Disease (1859), The Horse in the Stable and in the Field (1861), and The Modern Sportsman's Gun and Rifle (1882).
