Excerpt from Riding and Driving for Women This book does not pretend to be an exhaustive treatise on the subject of horsewomanship. It is offered merely as a collection of the most important points gleaned in my career as a horse-lover and professional horsewoman. While from experience alone a rider may evolve good form if she is a natural born horsewoman, yet this is so rare that, with most of us, a knowledge at the start of the general fundamental principles which are the basis of form in riding and driving, is essential. It was my good fortune to have my mother, Mrs. Emily S. Beach, lay the foundation for me and, similarly, these chapters may aid some of my readers. Nothing in this book is hearsay. That which takes but a moment to tell has taken me years to learn, learned as a pupil, learned as a teacher, learned by observation, learned by exhibition, by many a triumph, by many a heart-break, much of it a pleasure, much a hard task, but repaid always by my comrades through it all - the horses.
