Synopsis

Newmarket and Arabia: An Examination of the Descent of Racers and Coursers is a book written by Roger D. Upton and originally published in 1873. The book explores the history and lineage of horse racing and coursing, with a particular focus on the Arabian horse and its influence on the breeding of racehorses in England. Upton analyzes the pedigrees of famous racehorses from the Newmarket stables and traces their ancestry back to Arabian horses, arguing that the Arabian breed played a crucial role in the development of the modern Thoroughbred. The book also includes illustrations of notable horses and their lineage, as well as discussions of breeding practices and the importance of selecting superior bloodlines. Overall, Newmarket and Arabia provides a comprehensive look at the history and evolution of horse racing and coursing, and sheds light on the role of the Arabian horse in shaping this beloved sport.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
