Make the Most of Carriage Driving, Vivian & RIchard Ellis and Joy Claxton
"This is a wonderfully informative little book. I was working on certification as a driving instructor for PATH Intl., and found this book helpful in finding little details for study that I couldn't find elsewhere. This isn't only information on driving, but also on the different vehicles and how they where named and or recognized. The illustrations and pictures are lovely and helpful. There is plenty of information in here that will help keep the history or carriage driving alive."

Both of these paperbacks are in great condition. The binding is tight, I don't know if they have ever been read/opened. There are no page marks, bends or tears.
A great find!
