Charles Chenevix Trench traces the horse's role from its earliest domestication on the Central Asian steppes through its pivotal place in warfare, agriculture, sport, and culture across the ancient and modern worlds. Written with scholarly authority and an evident passion for the subject, the narrative illustrates how the art of riding evolved through distinct traditions — from the cavalry tactics of Greek and Roman armies to the refined disciplines of Renaissance dressage masters. Trench draws on a rich breadth of historical sources to present a detailed and authoritative account that is as accessible to the general reader as it is rewarding for the dedicated equestrian. The result is an engrossing and comprehensive portrait of how the horse shaped human history and how humanity, in turn, shaped the horse.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48820241662171,"sku":"2026100005210-SECONDHAND","price":20.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/26a25fd3-b5f1-45c2-8d93-6bc3d8fc2283.png?v=1780055418","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100005210-secondhand-a-history-of-horsemanship","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
