Kirkwood Rhett Meldrum Brian
Valley of the Kings. A History of the W.S. Cox Plate
Victoria: Equus Marketing 2000. 212 pp b/w photographs flatsigned by Rhett Kirkwood on the introduction page. There is a touch of irony in the fact that Moonee Valley Racing Club's W.S. Cox Plate billed as Australia's weight-for-age championship honors a man whose biggest race success was in a Handicap. Farmer cum racing entrepreneur William Samuel Cox won the 1875 Sydney Cup with Imperial but it is because of his acumen as a racing administrator - and his role in developing the proprietary Moonee Valley racetrack on a former farm - the the race carries his name. Signed by Author. First Edition. Hard Cover. Fine/Fine. 4to. Equus Marketing Hardcover

KISTLER JOHN M.; LAIR RICHARD FOREWORD
War Elephants
University of Nebraska Press Lincoln and London: 2007. Softcover. Brand new book. Elephants have fought in human armies for more than three thousand years. Asian armies boasted of their pachyderm power while the Romans fielded elephants alongside their legendary legions but were perhaps too proud to admit that mere animals contributed to victory. War Elephants is the story of their largely forgotten role in the history of warfare. Generals throughout recorded history used elephants as tanks bulldozers and cargo trucks long before such vehicles existed. Until gunpowder began to reduce the utility of elephants in battle during the seventeenth century these beasts built roads swung swords or simply terrified opposing forces. Although some believe that elephants were mere gimmicks of warfare John M. Kistler discredits that notion. War Elephants shows that elephants deserve respect for the sacrifices they have made in the service of many cultures. Elephants have long fought for and served human masters but it is now the elephants themselves that must be protected. John M. Kistler is a freelance writer and runs a small business. He received his mahout certificate from the Elephant Conservation Center in Thailand while assisting consultants on Oliver Stone's film. Includes 36 illustrations 2 maps a glossary and an Index. "Kistler provides a range of interesting facts about elephant behaviour not least the actual difficulties of managing a force of war elephants in terms of voracious appetite enormous thirst expensive armour and long term commitment to training and care. . . . John Kistler's account is often entertaining and certainly wide ranging."�Times Literary Supplement "War Elephants is flawlessly written and researched. . . . If you are interested in reading about ancient warfare or the role of elephants in war then this book is highly recommended." �Armchair General "Avid military buffs and students of ancient medieval and modern warfare animal rights and non-Western warfare will find much of interest in this comprehensive resource."�Library Media Connection "A serious-minded work of significant military history scholarship by professional librarian John Kistler War Elephants is recommended reading for anyone curious about the important role elephants have played in human history."�Midwest Book Review "Generals used elephants as tanks bulldozers and cargo trucks long before such vehicles existed and until gunpowder reduced the utility of elephants in battle these beasts built roads swung swords and terrified opposing forces. Kistler tells the story of the elephant's largely forgotten role in the history of warfare."�Reference & Research Book News "War Elephants provides the full history of pachyderms in battle presenting an animal historian's in-depth history of evidence tracing the use of elephants in battles from 1100 B.C. to the 17th century. From how the elephants participated in battle to strategies against them War Elephants provides quite a different perspective and is an unique military survey."�The Midwest Book Review - California Bookwatch University of Nebraska Press, Lincoln and London: 2007 paperback

Kitchell Jr. , Kenneth F.
ANIMALS IN THE ANCIENT WORLD FROM A TO Z
Very faint shelfwear else fine. ; The ancient Greeks and Romans lived in a world teeming with animals. Animals were integral to ancient commerce, war, love, literature and art. Inside the city they were found as pets, pests, and parasites. They could be sacred, sacrificed, liminal, workers, or intruders from the wild. Beyond the city domesticated animals were herded and bred for profit and wild animals were hunted for pleasure and gain alike. Specialists like Aristotle, Aelian, Pliny and Seneca studied their anatomy and behavior. Geographers and travelers described new lands in terms of their animals. Animals are to be seen on every possible artistic medium, woven into cloth and inlaid into furniture. They are the subject of proverbs, oaths and dreams. Magicians, physicians and lovers turned to animals and their parts for their crafts. They paraded before kings, inhabited palaces, and entertained the poor in the arena. Quite literally, animals pervaded the ancient world from A-Z. In entries ranging from short to long, Kenneth Kitchell offers insight into this commonly overlooked world, covering representative and intriguing examples of mammals, reptiles, amphibians and invertebrates. Familiar animals such as the cow, dog, fox and donkey are treated along with more exotic animals such as the babirussa, pangolin, and dugong. The evidence adduced ranges from Minoan times to the Late Roman Empire and is taken from archaeology, ancient authors, inscriptions, papyri, coins, mosaics and all other artistic media. Whenever possible reasoned identifications are given for ancient animal names and the realities behind animal lore are brought forth. Why did the ancients think hippopotamuses practiced blood letting on themselves? How do you catch a monkey? Why were hyenas thought to be hermaphroditic? Was there really a vampire moth? Entries are accompanied by full citations to ancient authors and an extensive bibliography.; 9.5 X 6.4 X 0.8 inches; 288 pages

Niet ik zoek het paard, het paard zoekt mij : mijn zoektocht naar de taal van het paard
Hardcover, 384 pagina's, NL, 305 x 215 mm, boek is qua inhoud in Nieuwstaat, cover / omslag heeft wat krassen, prachtige duidelijke foto's van en over een echte " horse whisperer". ISBN 9789079249121. Klaus Ferdinand Hempfling staat in de internationale paardenwereld bekend als de "Meester in lichaamstaal". Veel lezers van zijn spraakmakende vorige boeken en bezoekers van zijn clinics vragen zich af: 'hoe doet hij dat toch?' In Niet ik zoek het paard, .... onthult Hempling 'zijn geheim'. Diepzinnig en gedetailleerd, met vele stap-voor-stap tekeningen en foto's, wijdt Klaus Ferdinand Hempfling de lezer in zijn wereld van het begrijpen van paarden in. Hij legt daarbij evenveel nadruk op de basisbeginselen, als op de eerste momenten van samenzijn met paarden, evenals op de verschillende vormen van ontwikkeling van gevorderd tot het hoogste niveau. Speciaal voor dit boek werd de ontwikkeling van verschillende paarden uiterst gedetailleerd vastgelegd op foto's. Zo ontstonden unieke verslagen van de intieme arbeid van deze bijzondere paardenman. "Met dit boek heb ik in meerdere opzichten mijn nek ver uitgestoken", zegt Hempfling. "Over vele handelswijzen, emoties, bevindingen en praktijk-ervaringen vertel ik hierin voor het eerst. Ik beschrijf hoe ik de paarden benader, hoe ik ze terugbreng tot zichzelf en hoe ik ze zover breng dat ze hun uiterlijke en innerlijke pantser laten vallen. Alles staat erin". Het boek is een uitbundig geïllustreerd boekwerk met een rijkdom aan praktische, theoretische en spirituele verbanden. Een must voor iedere ruiter of paardenliefhebber, ongeacht bij welke wijze van rijden deze zich thuis voelt.
