Synopsis

As soon as the first edition of Angels on Horseback was published in 1957 the Thelwell pony entered the English language - and the libraries of horse lovers everywhere. This omnibus edition - now in hardback - contains much of Norman Thelwell s invaluable advice to aspiring equestrians on how to get into the saddle and stay there, each item illustrated with inimitable and deadly clarity. Since their debut appearance in Punch over sixty years ago, Norman Thelwell s cartoons and drawings have delighted millions of people all over the world. His portrayals of sporting pursuits, human beings at play, the life of the countryside and, of course, ponies, are the products of a unique comic genius. Thelwell really understood the English countryside, its animals and people, and appraised with sympathetic eye both horses and the horsey. That is why his drawings adorn the studies of some of the finest equestrians in the country as well as being sure pin-up material in many Pony Club Members' dens. Pony Cavalcade contains Angels on Horseback, A Leg at Each Corner and Thelwell's Riding Academy.
