Mutch About Horses
Mutch About Horses gathers together R.W. "Ronnie" Mutch's most astute, sparkling, and amusing drawings of the foibles of horsemanship and the riding circuit. Whether pointing out the hazards of a hunt breakfast at McDonald's, giving a tongue-in-cheek review of show jumping rules, or illustrating how not to walk a course, Mutch's drawings are always incisive and correct - and hilariously funny.Ronnie Mutch was a leading rider, teacher, trainer, judge, and illustrator of many books and articles on horses and riding. Enriching this collection are personal accounts by the notable horse-world figures who know him. For years his lighthearted drawings of the special world of horses and horsemen have been prized by private collectors. This volume is the perfect gift for horse lovers, fans of Norman Thelwells' "pony" cartoons, or anyone who has ever felt slightly absurd while sitting on a horse.
