paperback. Condizione: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category tha…t encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.

Paperback. Condizione: As New. The Shire Horse (1978) by Keith Chivers ? Sold by Crappy Old Books Lumbering through the misty pastures of British agricultural history comes The Shire Horse , Keith Chivers? affectionately written tribute to the gentle giants of the farming world. First published in 1978, this pastoral gem combine…s careful research, warm storytelling, and a healthy dose of nostalgia for a time when horsepower actually involved horses. From their medieval roots to their heyday hauling beer and ploughing fields, Chivers explores the rise, fall, and revival of the noble Shire with both precision and pride. Expect glossy black-and-white photos, charts about fetlocks, and loving profiles of horses with names like ?Champion Hercules of Wigan.? Whether you?re a draught horse devotee, a rural romantic, or just someone with a bookshelf full of oddly specific 1970s paperbacks, The Shire Horse is a heavy-hooved trot through a bygone world. Condition: Slightly yellowed, smells faintly of barns and Bovril ? but the binding?s still holding strong, much like the horses it celebrates. Crappy Old Books: Trot down memory lane. No wellies required. Near new condition.

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. The 'Four Oaks' were the leaders, through four generations, of the Forshaw family, pre-eminent in international Shire Horse breeding from the time of Waterloo until the end of the Second World War. Keith Chivers, the foremost authority on the history of the Shire Horse, presents m…aterial which is not only original, but unique. A close friend of Richard, the last of the Four Oaks, he is able to recount the Forshaw's family history with inimitable accuracy and detail. Few, even of those old enough to remember their winter coal being delivered by a horse, have paused to consider how these animals were bred: their mothers were farm workers scattered throughout the country; their fathers were travelling stallions, walking up to seventy miles a week, each covering perhaps a hundred or more mares in a season. For the majority of farmers in England and Wales cart-horse breeding was only a side-line, but the specialist stallion-owners developed a highly organised and sophisticated system, which brought about an astonishing improvement in the power and longevity of the animals toiling in the towns. The Forshaws were the foremost proprietors of heavy draught stallions in the country, renowned both at home and abroad for the quality of their animals. Largely thanks to them, by 1914 the English Shire was the most efficient draught horse in the world. Keith Chivers realises that "for most of us the lives and eccentricities of people are more interesting than horses," and The Four Oaks is peppered with fascinating accounts of the people and customs of the horse age. He recounts how the 'public stallion' business had a such a devastating effect on rural morals that mothers locked up their daughters when the stallion came to town - in Scotland a law was passed prohibiting the serving of mares in any place where women or boys could see it. We are introduced to a group of people spanning the social spectrum - ranging from George V to Gwen Webb-Peploe, daughter of the Vicar of Christ Church Cheltenham. A portrayal of the Age of the Horse. The 'Four Oaks' were the leaders, through four generations, of the For-shaw family, pre-eminent in international Shire horse breeding from the time of Waterloo until the end of the Second World War. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
