Saddle horses in Tennessee and the art of horsemanship
In Tennessee, Kentucky and Virginia the art of horsemanship reaches a high standard as saddle horses are bred for perfection. The rider moves with easy grace, using body signals rather than reins, with long stirrups and refined riding to achieve gaits like rack and fox trot. The piece notes training, equipment, and a vivid portrait of rider and horse, ending with a grooming tip for keeping hair crimped using gum arabic and alcohol.
