W h it e . “ There areperhaps few greater masters of the detail of the art than the author.”— The Sportsman. “ Captain Knight has nothing to do with history or anecdote; his work is entirely practical. Doubtless there are other books on the subject, but nonewithin our knowledge is more clear or complete in the instructions given for driving in single or double harness, and above all, for the moie difficultmysteries of four-in-hand or tandemdrivings”— The Times.
