Horsemastership in Boer War and the California emigration
The era of 1819 overland migration to the California coast saw vast provisions for sustenance, with hay and oats carried for cattle and mules as distant grasses like timothy spread from Missouri to the Pacific. The text argues the Boer mounted force succeeds through horsemastership, not raw riding skill, contrasting with British troops and noting widespread ignorance among cavalry officers. It cites journal quotes on horsemanship, then recounts sociable scenes on a Willow Grove car where a girl’s remark about a hat brightened women’s mood. It closes with a Georgia advert tale on subscription folly and ends noting the Prince of Wales’s costly private visits.
