Title	Modern Art of Taming Wild Horses
Subject	Plants and Animals Horses--Training Rarey, John Solomon, 1827-1866
Place	Groveport (Ohio) Franklin County (Ohio)
Description	A native of Groveport, Ohio, John Solomon Rarey (1827-1866) gained international fame using kindness, firmness, and patience to train previously unmanageable horses. His innovative methods captured international attention and secured him invitations to tour Europe, Canada, and Russia. In what was perhaps the most famous of his demonstrations, Rarey tamed a vicious horse named Cruiser in three hours. Rarey was given the horse as a reward for his skill. He then went on to exhibit Cruiser and his techniques throughout the U.S. and Europe. After returning to Ohio in 1856, Rarey published this popular manual, which explained his basic techniques. He publicized the book with a large display at the Ohio Stage Company at the corner of Gay and Fifth streets in Columbus. The manual is 62 pages long and measures 3.5" by 6" (9 by 16 cm). The first 19 pages are included here.
