The book covers all aspects of the game, including the history of polo, the rules and regulations, the equipment and attire required, and the techniques and strategies used by players.Miller begins by tracing the origins of polo, from its roots in ancient Persia to its development as a modern sport in England and India. He then delves into the intricacies of the game itself, explaining the roles of each player on the field and the strategies they use to score goals and defend against their opponents.Throughout the book, Miller offers practical advice on every aspect of the game, from selecting the right horse and equipment to improving one's technique and mastering advanced maneuvers. He also provides detailed descriptions of the various tournaments and competitions held around the world, and offers insights into the psychology of successful polo players.Written in a clear and engaging style, Modern Polo is a must-read for anyone interested in the sport of polo, from beginners to seasoned veterans.
