This volume brings together Jean Froissard's two definitive books
on dressage and classical horsemanship. Part one, "A Guide to Basic
Dressage" is an essential text for all riders who aspire to train
correctly and compete successfully. The stages of classical school
based on General L'Hotte's concise maxim "calm, forward, straight"
are given in a simple and logical progression. Starting with the
selection of a suitable dressage horse, Froissard leads the reader
patiently through each movement and transition, with emphasis on
the rider's influence, and aids being properly applied at the
correct moment. Part two, "Classical Horsemanship for Our Time"
presents the heritage of classical theories of riding in a modern,
highly readable format, taking the reader through the development
of a dressage horse - that is, dressage in its truest sense: the
training of a riding horse. Froissard begins with criteria for
selecting a horse and early training that should be basic for any
horse, whatever its equestrian discipline. With constant emphasis
on rewards for even the slightest improvement, Froissard then takes
the reader through the training progression up to the highest
dressage levels. The emphasis throughout is always on the practical
rather than the heavily theoretical. While particularly addressing
the dressage rider, "Classical Horsemanship for Our Time" is a
supreme aid for all riders and competitors who desire a deeper and
more complete understanding of the classical way of riding.
