Bits And Bearing-Reins: With Observations On Horses And Harness is a book written by Edward Fordham Flower in 1885. The book is a comprehensive guide to the use of bits and bearing-reins in horse riding and driving, as well as an examination of the broader issues surrounding the treatment of horses and the use of harness. The book begins with an overview of the different types of bits and their functions, as well as the different types of bearing-reins and their uses. It then goes on to examine the various ways in which bits and bearing-reins can be used to control horses, and the potential risks and drawbacks of each method.In addition to its practical advice on riding and driving, Bits And Bearing-Reins also includes a number of observations on the nature of horses and the ethics of their treatment. Flower argues that horses are intelligent and sensitive animals that should be treated with respect and care, and that the use of harsh bits and bearing-reins can cause them unnecessary pain and suffering.Overall, Bits And Bearing-Reins is a valuable resource for anyone interested in horse riding or driving, as well as those concerned with animal welfare and the ethical treatment of horses.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
