The difference between Henry de Bussigny's system of training the horse and the systems of FrançoisBaucher and James Fillis is that the former has carried his study farther the science as distinguished from the art. In addition, while Baucher and Fillis trained their horses for the sake of executing the movements of the high school, Bussigny employed the airs of the high school, not as an end in themselves, but as a means for developing the physical and mental qualities of the horse itself. By way of his system of gymnastics, he seeked to improve and develop a horse of any origin or conformation.The purposes of this manual are to explain the mechanical reason for every effect which the rider exerts on the horse, and to set forth the practical successive steps by which an ordinary horse is to be trained and developed. Underlying principles and theories are thoroughly explained with the greatest possible clearness. The methods are set forth and should prove perfectly easy both to understand and to apply.
