A Guide to Training and Horse Management In India : With A Hindustanee Stable and Veterinary Vocabulary and The Calcutta Turf Club Tables for Weight for Age and Class

About The Book : In the this book, which was intended chiefly for the use of racing men, the subject of Horse Management was made subservient to that of Training, while the principles of the former were enunciated with but little attempt to reason out their correctness. The favourable notice which the work received from the Public, convinced the Author of the advisability of treating, in detail, these two subjects under separate headings, and of giving, in popular language, a concise resume of the theoretical points affecting the Horse, so that the reader might draw his own deductions, without having to accept the mere ipse dixit of the Author as sufficient authority for his teaching. By this, the practical utility of the work is in no way prejudiced, for these chapters are complete and distinct in themselves, so that the reader may skip them or not as he chooses, while the inferences to be drawn from them are separately summed up.
