A practical manual offering detailed guidance on selecting, maintaining, and budgeting for horses, carriages, and driving staff. It supplies cost estimates for ownership and hire, descriptions of carriage construction and components (axle-trees, wheels, harness), and advice on purchasing, repairing, and evaluating new and second-hand vehicles. Chapters cover stable management, horse health and feeding, seasonal care, emergency handling, and the duties and management of coachmen, with rules for punctuality and hiring. An accessible method for calculating hackney-coach fares and a glossary of technical coachmaking terms complete the hands-on reference for owners and hirers.
Obvious typographical errors have been silently corrected. Variations in hyphenation and accents have been standardised but all other spelling and punctuation remains unchanged.
