Horse Drawn Sleighs

Author: Susan Green
Pages: 265
Cover: Softbound
Dimensions: 8 1/2" x 11"
Item #: BK115
Price: $29.95
Produced by the curator of the Carriage Museum of America, this book is a compendium of 19th Century catalogs of horse drawn sleighs. Profusely illustrated with period engravings and line drawings, each of which is accompanied by the period catalog description, this book encompasses a virtual Museum of Sleighs between its covers. Arranged in chapters that are topically devoted to the type and function of the sleigh, the regional variations in design, as well as the functional uses of winter horse-drawn vehicles become quickly apparent to the modern student. If you wish to be able to distinguish between a Portland Cutter or an Albany Swell-Body Sleigh, or if you are thinking of building your own, this book will surely get you well on your way.
