Piero Santini

Piero Santini, author of this work, was perhaps the greatest teacher of riding in the world (in 1941). He was a devoted student and disciple of Federico Caprilli and was a well-respected author. Santini, a Major in the Italian Light Horse Cavalry, continued and advanced Caprilli's methods through the early to mid-20th century. With an Italian father and American mother, Santini spoke and wrote English as a second language.
