Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the world of the American trotting horse, and the remarkable individuals who helped shape its history. It does so through the lens of a unique and fascinating character: the ââ Å"Silent Man,ââ  a legendary horse driver named Ed. Geers. The author explores the…character of Geers, who embodies a particular strain of American individualism, characterized by resilience, quiet determination, and an unwavering dedication to his craft. The book recounts Geersââ â¢s rise to prominence, weaving together accounts of his extraordinary driving feats, such as his record-breaking performance with the trotter The Abbot. These stories are not simply tales of athletic achievement, but serve as a window into a bygone era of American sporting culture. The author also critiques the educational practices of the time, contrasting the formal education system with the practical and intuitive knowledge gleaned from experience. The book challenges conventional notions of education, suggesting that true learning emerges from a combination of self-reliance, hands-on experience, and a deep connection with nature. It is a testament to the enduring legacy of a man who, through his quiet dedication and unparalleled skill, transformed not only the world of horse racing but also the broader understanding of achievement and success.
