Method of riding based on new principles by F. Baucher

The second edition of Baucher’s Method of Riding Based on New Principles, first published in 1842 — appearing in English here for the first time, translated by Mangaiti Equine.

François Baucher, one of the greatest French riders of the 19th century, left behind a body of work that had an unprecedented impact on classical equitation. In an era when ethology and animal welfare have become central concerns, Baucher’s Method is more relevant than ever.

This edition includes:

• A foreword by Dominique Ollivier
• The original plates by L. Heyraud
• The English translation presented side-by-side with the original French (unchanged from the first edition)

For students of Baucherism, French classical dressage, or anyone seeking an alternative to modern training methods, this is essential reading.

New, signed copy — signed by the translator.
