"Hints on Driving" by Captain C. Morley Knight is a practical guide on equestrian driving techniques, written in the late 19th century. The book aims to instruct beginners in the fundamentals and intricacies of driving horses, offering insights into harnessing, managing different horse teams, and the various types of carts and carriages. Through detailed explanations and clear illustrations, it serves as a resource for both novices and more experienced coachmen looking to refine their skills. The opening of the book sets the stage by addressing the need for instruction in the art of driving, particularly for those without prior experience. Knight emphasizes that many existing texts neglect fundamental details, which can be crucial for a beginner's success. The introduction discusses various aspects of driving, including the importance of observing skilled drivers, managing harnesses, and understanding each component's role in achieving effective and safe driving. Overall, the initial chapters serve as a foundational overview aimed at breaking down the art of driving into manageable, teachable elements. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
