The Fell Pony

The "Fell Pony" examines the history of the breed from Roman times when the stamp of the pony we now know originated. The varied and hanging uses of the Fell over the centuries are examined, as well as how the breed survived the increasing mechanization of the twentieth century to take its place in the modern world as an all-round ride-and-drive pony. Its performance abilities are assessed in the light of the wide range of competitive opportunities now open to native ponies, and its unique qualities evaluated for today's discriminating market.

Author Biography:
Clive Richardson was honorary secretary/treasurer of the Fell Pony Society for nearly ten years. As a successful exhibitor of Fell ponies, he won innumerable championships at national level before retiring from showing to concentrate on judging and writing. As well as writing two previous books on the breed, he has produced a compilation of Fell pony bloodline from 1898 to 1980 inclusive. He has judged Fell ponies extensively in this country as well as in America, Holland and Germany. Clive Richardson is also the author of The Horse Breakers.
