Excerpt from The Barb and the Bridle: A Handbook of Equitation for Ladies, and Manual of Instruction in the Science of Riding, From the Preparatory Supplying Excercises on Foot, to the Form in Which a Lady Should Ride to Hounds Having received numerous applications from ladies desirous of information, as to the true principles and practice of equitation, I venture to put before the public, in book form, a series of articles which appeared originally in the columns of the Queen newspaper on ladies' riding. Commencing with the calisthenic practices so necessary to a young lady before beginning her mounted lessons, these papers enter into every detail (less those of the Kaut Ecole de Manege) connected with the science of riding as it should be acquired by all who wish to become efficient horsewomen.
