''The British Thoroughbred Horse: His History And Breeding, Together With An Exposition Of The Figure System'' is a book written by William Allison in 1901. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the history and breeding of the British Thoroughbred horse. It covers the development of the breed from the early days of horse racing in England to the present day. The author also discusses the various factors that contribute to the success of Thoroughbred breeding, including the selection of stallions and mares, the importance of bloodlines, and the role of the breeder. In addition, the book includes an exposition of the figure system, a method used to evaluate the performance of racehorses. This system is explained in detail, and the author provides examples of how it can be used to identify the most promising horses for breeding and racing. Overall, ''The British Thoroughbred Horse'' is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and breeding of this iconic breed of horse.''This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
