Description

Man and the Horse is An Illustrated History of Equestrian Apparel. Because the horse has always enjoyed a special place in the hierarchy in the animal kingdom, the splendor of equestrian attire has reflected this hierarchy. Riding clothes have always shared a unique quality. They require superior design, materials, and workmanship. As they indicate social status and incorporate contemporary fashion, the clothing and accessories of the horseman make an important statement about the era in which they evolved. The Contents includes the following chapters: Man, and the Horse; Aside and Astride: A History of Ladies' Riding Apparel; and Fashion on Wheels. 127/Hardbound/Illustrations/Photographs
