Opis

Perfection, as Talbot-Ponsonby so rightly says, should always be the goal for which every rider strives relentlessly. Perfection will seldom, if ever, be reached, but the rider who studies the technique in every detail will be the nearer to achieving success. In every competition there will always be found the four or five riders who battle for the first place, and it is those one who can maintain their concentration and offer every assistance to the horse who will be the winner. Once in the arena the rider cannot afford to make a single mistake, as unlike many other sports no second opportunity is offered, and the standard is now so high that every detail must be carefully studied. There can be no person better qualified than Jack Talbot-Ponsonby to write such a book as this, for not only was he a brilliant rider but he proved his greatness with success, and now in the past few years he has shown himself to be an equally great instructor. This book is excellently written by a great artist, who was an individualist, and one who has discussed and studied every detail. Riders are fortunate in having the opportunity of studying these details with such simplicity, and I only hope they will take the opportunity this book offers. Let all remember that no artist will succeed unless he or she studies the technique and detail of great masters, and Talbot-Ponsonby is a great master.
