UNDERHILL, Francis T.

11" x 8"
A fascinating artifact of horse-drawn transportation, equipment and technique written by a member of the American aristocracy.
Writing at the turn of the century, Francis T. Underhill provided horse and carriage owners with a comprehensive guidebook that described how a well turned-out carriage should look and be handled. An expert in coaching and equipage, Underhill wrote with enthusiasm and a thorough knowledge of the subject, offering his readers a wealth of information about horses, harnesses, coaches, stables, and liveries, as well as useful "suggestions to the uninitiated.
