| Summary | "Riding and Driving" by Edward L. Anderson and Price Collier is a comprehensive manual on equestrian practices and horsemanship written in the early 20th century. This instructional work delves into both riding and driving techniques, covering topics ranging from breeding saddle-horses to effective training methods. The authors aim to educate readers on best practices for horse care, handling, and training, making it a valuable resource for aspiring riders and horse enthusiasts. The opening of the book focuses on the principles of breeding saddle-horses, highlighting the superiority of thoroughbreds in various aspects such as beauty, stamina, and ability to transmit desirable traits to their offspring. The discussion sets a historical context for horse breeding while emphasizing the importance of selecting the right stallion and mare to produce desirable offspring. The passage also touches on the relationship between horse types and their suitability for various riding purposes, indicating that careful breeding practices can lead to the development of excellent saddle-horses, particularly emphasizing the contributions of American breeders in creating a distinct type of horse suitable for pleasure riding.
