Beschreibung
From turning hay with a single horse and setting up a traditional plough to farming with big teams of horses, 'Working Horses...' explores the practicalities and philosophy of using draught horses for work.

Grounded in over thirty years' experience with working horses and his own historical research, William Castle's anthology of selected essays and articles draws together insights and practises from the past with modern ways of working, scientific developments and innovations in engineering, all seen from the perspective of a practical horseman.

Placing the workhorse in a contemporary setting, this is both a practical book and one which inspires us to appreciate the connections between nature and farming, between soil and sustainability, and the beneficial effects of using horses on the environment and ourselves.
