Product Description
Product Description
Think of the words "forgotten classic," then look at the book in your hands. For resting under the words "Bridles Road of Spain" is the most beautifully written equestrian travel account of the 19th century. Even in that age of bold and prolific Long Rider authors, no other work enjoyed this book's unique mixture of dashing exploits and enchanted writing. For this was no mere "boy's own adventure." Rather, it was the keen-eyed memoir of a mounted poet, whose unique journey recorded a beloved country and then passed into literary oblivion itself. Oh, to be twenty-five, young and in love. For that was what George Cayley was, when he set out in 1852 to ride across one of the most romantic countries in the world. Accompanied by a fellow wandering spirit, the young Englishmen donned the dashing clothes of caballeros, bought two fiery steeds called the Moor and the Cid, then never looked back.
