This vintage book contains a detailed guide to the harnesses used for driving and carriage horses, with remarks on the use of the cape cart, directions for grooms and coachmen regarding their duties, dress, and how to drive a cart. With simple diagrams and a wealth of invaluable information, this volume will be of utility to those occupied or interested in horse-drawn carriage driving, and would make for a fantastic addition to collections of allied literature. Contents include: “Ancient and Modern Methods of Harnessing”, “The Cape Cart”, “Two-Wheeled Carriages With Two Horses”, “The Indian Cart”, “The Cape Cart”, “Cape Cats and Curricles”, “Driving Curricle”, “Heavy Two-Horse Carts”, “Two-Wheeled Cart With Pair of Horses”, and “Directions to Coachmen”.
