The Game of Polo

This vintage book contains a detailed guide to playing polo, complete with historical information, instructions for training player and pony, hints on running a polo club, tips on strategy and play, information on polo around the world, and much more. "The Game of Polo" will be of considerable utility to modern players and would make for a worthy addition to collections of related literature. Contents include: "The Rise and Development of Polo", "The Training of the Player", "The Education of the Pony", "The Game", "The Umpire", "Management of the Polo Club", "Polo in India", "Polo in the Colonies and Abroad", "Polo Ponies", "Pulling Ponies", "Breeding Polo Ponies and the P.P. Stud Book Society", etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on horses used for sport and utility.
