| Summary | "Ladies on Horseback" by Mrs. Power O'Donoghue is a guidebook on equestrian skills, written in the late 19th century. The work focuses on practical advice for women seeking to learn horseback riding, encompassing various aspects such as techniques, appropriate attire, and etiquette. The author, drawing from personal experience and observations, emphasizes the significance of proper training and the development of a strong and confident riding style. The opening portion of the book introduces the author’s motivation for writing, rooted in her observations at a hunting event where she noted the discrepancy in riding skills and attire among lady equestrians. She expresses a desire to see women improve their riding technique and knowledge. The section outlines her belief that formal riding education can begin later in life without compromising skill acquisition, while also detailing the necessary equipment and attire for beginners. Moreover, it highlights the importance of attitude, courage, and personal inclination in equestrian pursuits. Overall, the beginning sets a foundation for a comprehensive exploration of the equestrian world specifically tailored to women. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
