Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the pressing problem of how to secure a reliable supply of horses suitable for military use. It analyzes the changing nature of horse breeding in the United States since the Civil War and the impact of the growing draft horse industry on the availability of horses for the Army. The author argues that the United States needs to take steps to encourage the breeding of horses specifically tailored to the needs of the mounted service, and proposes a plan for the government to subsidize the breeding of these horses in cooperation with farmers. The plan aims to address the current shortage of suitable horses and ensure a reserve supply in case of war. The book's insights are significant for understanding the challenges of maintaining a mounted military force in the face of changing agricultural practices and the need for a comprehensive approach to horse breeding.
