"Riding for Ladies: With Hints on the Stable" by Mrs. Power O'Donoghue is a practical guidebook written in the late 19th century. The book aims to provide useful insights into equestrian practices specifically aimed at women, covering aspects from basic riding techniques to stable management. The author draws on her experience to address the evolving landscape of women's riding and the importance of proper instruction and equipment. The opening portion of the book establishes the author's intentions and initial thoughts about the suitability of riding for children. Mrs. O'Donoghue argues against allowing young girls to ride, citing safety concerns and potential physical strain on their developing bodies. She emphasizes that equestrianism requires a certain level of maturity and physical strength, prepared through careful instruction. Through anecdotes and personal observations, she underscores the dangers and debates surrounding the practice and ultimately encourages a more cautious approach to introducing children to riding, particularly at a young age.
