| Summary | "Patroclus and Penelope: A Chat in the Saddle" by Theodore Ayrault Dodge is a work on horsemanship written in the late 19th century. The narrative centers around the author's relationship with his horse, Patroclus, intertwined with insights into riding techniques and equestrian philosophy. Dodge aims to combine personal anecdotes with practical advice, appealing to both avid horse riders and those interested in improving their equestrian skills. At the start of the book, the author reflects fondly on his years spent with Patroclus, describing the horse’s characteristics, their adventures together, and the deep bond formed between them. The text presents an engaging dialogue between the author and his horse, containing rich descriptions of Patroclus's actions and demeanor. Dodge also hints at broader themes of equestrian culture and evolving riding styles, suggesting that improving horsemanship is essential not just for individual riders, but for the appreciation of the art itself.
