Theresa Assad –
I am revisiting back issues and finding valuable information. I really enjoyed Bettina Drummond and Dr Max Gahwyler’s article on the origins of warfare and it’s influence on the development of the Iberian horse. Having had the privilege of riding a Lusitano and experiencing their incredible temperament and athleticism, the article meant so much more to me, as well as clarifying terms such as descente de main. Very well illustrated and Bettina and Max recreated the head gear of historical times and tested it out, the article has the photos. Very well researched, well written and understandable. Most educational! I also see parallels between the ancients and modern day Vaquero’s, such as Mr Pat Puckett. July 2023.
