via email from Anke Hillebrand, 12-30-03 I found your site and have a question for you.. Because I'm busy with a documentary of the "brothers Spyker", I know about Trompenburg and the making of 'Spyker planes and engines!' I also know that Wijnmalen was president of Trompenburg.... Do you have perhaps pictures of him in a Spyker plane? Regards, Anke Hillebrand Editor's Note: If any of you can help Mr. Hillebrand with his quest, please contact me. I will forward your message to him. He tells me that he can use any information until March, 2004. |
DRESSAGE A Study of the Finer Points of Riding Henry Wynmalen Product Details Hardbound: 288 pages; 6x9 inches Publisher: A. S. Barnes and Company, Inc. Out of Print: |
Description: "DRESSAGE is the Art of improving one's horse beyond the stage of plain usefullness. An understanding of its principles is of inestimable value to all riders who wish to improve the performance of their horses in order to add to their enjoyment and success. The author explains that the nature of these principles is esssentially very simple. There is, he says, no fundamental difference between the methods employed in handling a new-born foal or in riding a high-school horse. It is only in the application of these methods to work of an ever more exacting nature that the difficulties increase." |
