Book Description
Written as a guide to help native (Spahi) non-commissioned officers incorporate new recruits, and newly acquired horses, into effective cavalry units, this book presents a method formed around the Arab (North-African) style of riding. While indicating its limitations, he stresses its benefits: the ease with which it can be acquired, the confidence which the native saddle imparts upon the rider, and the constant impulsion it imparts upon the horse. General Decoins also explains the principles of the Arab bit, removing some of the mystery that has surrounded this elegant instrument. It is a fitting companion to Daumas Horses of the Sahara, written by another French General half a century later

Equestrian Cultures in Global and Local Contexts
Author: Miriam Adelman
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319558862
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 275
Book Description
This edited volume demonstrates the broader socio-cultural context for individual human-horse relations and equestrian practices by documenting the international value of equines; socially, culturally, as subjects of academic study and as drivers of public policy. It broadens our understanding of the importance of horses to humans by providing case studies from an unprecedented diversity of cultures. The volume is grounded in the contention that the changing status of equines reveals - and moves us to reflect on - important material and symbolic societal transformations ushered in by (post)modernity which affect local and global contexts alike. Through a detailed consideration of the social relations and cultural dimensions of equestrian practices across several continents, this volume provides readers with an understanding of the ways in which interactions with horses provide global connectivity with localized identities, and vice versa. It further discusses new frontiers in the research on and practice of equestrianism, framed against global megatrends and local micro-trends.

Arab Horse
Author: Jules Archer
Publisher: Ja Allen
ISBN: 9780851318004
Category : Arabian horse
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
As one of the oldest breeds, the Arabian is extraordinarily prepotent; it has had a profound influence on light-horse breeding throughout the world. Admired for its beauty and intelligence, centuries of life in the harsh environment of the Arabian Desert also endowed it with the qualities of toughness, endurance, and courage, whilst its close association with man resulted in its noble ability to form strong attachments to humans. The Arabian has all the qualities of a perfect riding horse and its performance in a wide variety of activities is proof of its versatility. The book's outstanding photographs not only complement the text but also demonstrate this trait of versatility by showing the Arabian at work in every equestrian discipline as well as its natural desert habitat and depicted in art.
