Xenophon's 'On Horsemanship' is a groundbreaking work that delves into the intricacies of horse training and care. Written in a clear and concise style, this ancient text provides practical advice on selecting, training, and maintaining horses, making it a timeless resource for equestrians. Xenophon's emphasis on the importance of understanding the psychology of horses and building a trusting relationship with them sets this book apart from other classical works on horsemanship. Through insightful anecdotes and detailed explanations, Xenophon showcases his expertise in the field and offers valuable insights for modern horse enthusiasts. His work not only serves as a guide for horse owners, but also as a testament to the enduring bond between humans and horses. Xenophon, a renowned Athenian historian and philosopher, drew upon his own experiences as a cavalry commander to write 'On Horsemanship'. His passion for horses and commitment to excellence shine through in this influential treatise, making it a must-read for those interested in classical horsemanship methods and the ancient art of riding. I highly recommend Xenophon's 'On Horsemanship' to anyone seeking a comprehensive and timeless guide to understanding and training horses.

Xenophon

A philosopher, soldier, and historian of ancient Greece, Xenophon (c.430–354 B.C.) was a disciple of Socrates; he and Plato are the only two students whose records survive of the philosopher's conversation, life, and teachings.

In the Anabasis and Hellenica, Xenophon reported on events of his own era; the former recounts his participation in a Persian civil war, and the latter provides an important account of the end and aftermath of the Peloponnesian War.
