CEATS AND SADDLES, Bits and Bitting, Draught and
^ Harness, and the Prevention and Cure of Restiveness in
Horses. By Major Francis Dwyer.
(Opinions of the Press on the New Edition).
Bell's Life says: — "The work which Major Dwyer has so
successfully carried through the press in two former editions is, for
the third time, presented to the public in a new and enlarged form. In
all the details of horse management the author is perfectly at home,
and the practical way in which he deals with his subject cannot fail
to be appreciated by equestrians or those who keep studs. The first
portion of the volume is devoted to a lengthy dissertation on the all-
important subject of Seats and Saddles. These chapters afford much
valuable information gained by a careful study, not only of the frame-
work of the animal considered from a mechanical point of view, but also
of the influence of the saddle in its relation to the seat of the rider. . . .
We assure our readers that the whole contents of the book are well
worth perusal. It may be well, however, to mention that the question
of bits and bitting is thoroughly considered, while Part III. is taken up
with remarks on the true principles which should be observed in matters
of draught and harness. The concluding portion of the book deals with
that worst of all vices in the horse, restiveness, its prevention and cure."
The Dublin Farmers' Gazette says:— "We noticed Major
Dwyer's book on its first appearance some years ago, and we do so
again with much pleasure, seeing it has reached its third edition, and
appears in an enlarged and much improved form. It is a book which
should be in the hands of every one who either rides a horse or drives
