An Academy for Grown Horsemen

Excerpt from An Academy for Grown Horsemen: Containing the Completest Instructions for Walking, Trotting, Cantering, Galloping, Stumbling and Tumbling I have therefore adopted Academy, I think it is happily chosen, properly expressive, and has, I think, been affixed to but one work of genius, viz. The Academy of Compliments, a publica tion, which, thanks to our present politeness, is now scarcely remembered. The Academy for grown Horsemen, is a work that has cost me much labour, and the applica tion of some years, to complete. But when I consider the vast utility it may be of to my fellow creatures; that they are to profit by it, and not myself.
