This omnibus edition - now in hardback - contains much of Norman
Thelwell's invaluable advice to aspiring equestrians on how to get
into the saddle and stay there; each item illustrated with
inimitable and deadly clarity. From the first publication of Angels
on Horseback in 1957, the Thelwell pony entered the language and
the libraries of horse-lovers everywhere. The angels in Angels on
Horseback are children, but there is plenty here about their
parents. Both for those who know Thelwell, and for those who have
not met him before, this book is a savoury at all times but
especially after attending a gymkhana. Since their debut appearance
in Punch over sixty years ago, Norman Thelwell's cartoons and
drawings have delighted millions of people all over the world. His
portrayals of sporting pursuits, human beings at play, the life of
the countryside and, of course, ponies, are the products of a
unique comic genius.
