English, or whether the rider foxhunts or trail rides, as long as she main-
tains that fundamental correctness.
I’ve spent much of my life in close proximity to some of the truly great
riders in the world. Almost universally, they aren’t one-dimensional rid-
ers. Eight-time Olympic three-day veteran Mike Plumb won the Maclay
equitation class as a child and placed second in the Maryland Hunt
Cup. Frank Chapot, six-time grand prix jumping Olympian, placed third
in the Maryland Hunt Cup.
Great riders are great riders—something Donna recognizes and
encourages in this marvelous book. She says to us, in essence, that we
need to learn to ride correctly, and then take that riding wherever we
wish to go, in any direction that sparks our passion. The All-Around
Horse and Rider is a road map, an intellectual exercise and an inspira-
tion that deserves a prominent place on the bookshelf of every serious
rider.

2 THE ALL-AROUND HORSE AND RIDER
horses, who have become companion animals rather than toys or tools.
Events in our nation’s recent past have encouraged many to revisit their
sense of identity, and, awakened by the piper’s song of our country’s
equestrian heritage, riders are reaching for a new vision—one in which
the team of horse and rider forms a deep and historical partnership.
The American urge to “be all you can be” will continue to challenge
riders, but the standards many strive toward today are the standards of
the men, women and horses whose mastery of multiple skills is the rea-
son our nation exists. We want to ride the cavalry mount; the companion
and trusted friend who braved the roar of cannon and the rattle of sabers
to carry his rider obediently into battle; the one who would gallop great
distances, leaping barriers and swimming rivers at his rider’s request, to
arrive at their destination; the horse who stories tell was known to stand
guard over his rider fallen in battle rather than return to the safety of the
stable. Or the cow pony, the horse who stood quietly at the end of a rope
for the cowboy while the branding iron was applied to the calf, moved
readily to full gallop if an animal broke from the herd and returned to a
relaxed walk when the errant critter had been returned to its place, who
stood without being tied while his rider strung fence, and brought him
safely back to the home corral on the darkest night, in rain or snow. That
horse, the all-around horse, is our heritage, our privilege and our prize.

6 THE ALL-AROUND HORSE AND RIDER
Used in everyday affairs from the time they were brought to the shores
of this continent in 1493 by Columbus, horses were the earliest tractors,
serving the farmer in the nation’s agricultural fields, pulling plows and
clearing the land for building. They were the engines between the traces
of a great variety of vehicles, from the earliest version of UPS (heavy
delivery wagons) to the forerunner of our modern bus (the stagecoach) to
the RV of its time (the covered wagon). They served as engine for the
family station wagon (the buckboard), sedan (doctor’s buggy) and sports
car (the gig).
But it wasn’t until the American Revolution, when a regiment of 400
men from Connecticut known as the Light Horse reported to General
George Washington mounted on their own private bloodstock, that the
horse made a significant appearance in American history as a war
machine. This particular group of sporting gentlemen enlisted with the
agreement that they would be excused from some of the normal soldierly
duties in order to have the time to care for their animals, whom they con-
sidered as valuable as their other fighting weapons. General
Washington, fearing his foot soldiers would be jealous of the time these
men spent with their mounts, sent the regiment home. Shortly thereafter,
he suffered a major defeat at the hands of the British, whose successful
strategy relied heavily on mounted troops. Washington, himself a horse-
man and a foxhunter, soon changed his mind, and in 1777, Congress for-
mally authorized the formation of four regiments of dragoons. They
fought with sabers and flintlock pistols, and the fashion press of the day
showed them dressed in buckskin breeches and top boots with helmets
of brass—their actual attire was much meaner.
As the mounts for couriers and soldiers, horses earned their daily
rations by their patience, endurance and bravery. When life and death
hung on the point of a saber, the cavalry horse had to respond to a rider’s
slightest cue, rapidly and without question.
After the end of the Revolution, as men and families from the East
pushed West, it was largely the fighting skills of Native American horse-
men that revived the government’s interest in the cavalry in 1832. In The
Story of the U.S. Cavalry by Major General John K. Herr and Edward
Wainwright, the Indian mounts are described as scarcely 14 hands,
slight in build, with powerful forequarters, good legs, a short, strong
back and a full barrel (deep heart girth). Although they did not resem-
ble the “blooded” horses from the East, it was said they had sharp ears
and bright eyes, and unusual intelligence. “The amount of work he
