Sobre este artículo
London, England: Longman, Brown, Green & Longmans. Very Good. 1848. 1st Edition; 1st Printing. Hardcover. This book is in Very Good- condition and was likely issued without a dust jacket. Quarter leather spine with green boards and gilt decoration on the front cover. The spine ends of the book have rubbing, wear and chipping. The leather has dried up a bit and has a few nicks and dings. The text pages are mostly clean and bright, with toning only to the endpapers and the reverse of the frontispiece. "Whenever a man ventures to give hints or offer advice to others on the management of their property or affairs (be the nature of them what it may) , he lays himself open to a charge of both arrogance and presumption, unless he can bring forward a good reason for fancying himself qualified for the task..." This book discusses many aspects of owning, raising, buying and keeping horses. .
