Description Fran ois Robichon de la Gu rini re (1688-1751) was born in Essay, a small town near Alen on, where his father was a lawyer; he was also an officer at the court of the Duchess of Orleans.
La Gu rini re was a pupil of Antoine de Vendeuil, who was cuyer ordinaire de la grande ecurie in Versailles between 1680 and 1717.
In 1715, de la Gu rini re received the title as cuyer du Roi, which entitled him to give lessons.
In 1730, Prince Charles of Lorraine, Grand cuyer de France (Master of the Horse) named him director of the Royal Stables at the Tuileries, which had been founded by Antoine de Pluvinel, Louis XIII's teacher.
De Pluvinel is best know for his work: The Maneige Royal, 1626 Xenophon Press 2010].
La Gu rini re's book, cole de Cavalerie, was first published in 1731 and again under different titles between 1733 and 1802.
It consists of three parts: Knowledge of the Horse In and Out of the Stable; Training; and Treatment of Illness.
This expanded volume contains all Chapters I - XXII of the Second Part of cole de Cavalerie, entitled ''De La Mani re de Dresser Les Chevaux, Suivant Les Diferens Usages Auxquels On Les Destine.
'' (The Method of Training Horses According to the Different Ways in Which They Will Be Used).
Chapters XIX through XXII are new to this edition and contain valuable information pertinent to today's riders and trainers.
In discussing subjects as the training of the war horse, the hunt horse, the coach horse and other matters such as tournaments, jousting, carousels, etc.
, the author reveals important training advice that will be invaluable to riders of many disciplines.
The illustrations used are reproduced from the 1733 edition.
Further expanding this edition is an Appendix including a new translation of Chapter VI from Part I: On the bridle.
Part II, the training portion of the three volume book heavily references the bridle and the use of the rider's hands.
As editor, I felt it was important to include these detailed descript.
