Product Description

Product Description

The Badminton three-day event is now an established part of the sporting calendar. Hosted by successive Dukes of Beaufort on their country estate, the event attracts over 200,000 spectators. This book looks back over the last 50 years to tell the whole Badminton story from its faltering beginnings in 1949 to its position as the second largest sporting event in the world, after America's indy car final. The horse trials are seen through the eyes of the people whose skill, effort and enthusiasm have shaped the event. The book offers profiles of personalities, fascinating facts and figures and a glimpse behind the scenes.

5.0 out of 5 stars My favourite eventing book, 15 Feb 2009
This book is a fabulous addition to any eventing enthusiast's shelf. It is absolutely packed full of photographs- fascinating as a comparison of the event over the decades. It is not short on information, either, with details of each year of the event's running from 1949 until 1999. A beautiful celebration of the greatest three day event in the world.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Brilliant and Informative Book for ALL eventing fans, 19 Aug 2000
By A Customer
Need I say more... This book takes pride of place on my bookshelf. It is brilliantly written and with me being obsessed with eventing and having always longed to ride there (in my dreams) this book made a wonderful read.
