Description
In this, his classic work on driving and harnessing, Colonel Max Pape has recorded all that he learnt during their long friendship from Benno von Achenbach, an undisputed master of the field and to whom this book is dedicated. Max Pape’s own ideas are closely associated with those of von Achenbach whose methods he has both taught and developed further. The book not only covers clearly and concisely the principles of harness and equipment but almost every possible aspect of driving, from one horse to a team, from the show-ring to agriculture. It has earned its place in driving circles throughout Europe as a standard guide and reference book. This edition has been copiously illustrated with drawings by Gisela Holstein, as well as numerous photographs from the original German edition and others featuring well-known drivers.
