No worries, I wasn't referring to your comments as a review or implying that your comments weren't detailed enough. No criticism was intended. I agree that the print versions of these works are much more expensive, I suppose that's a feature of very niche publication. I'd snap them all up if I had t...
I am sure it will be the definitive reference for the Dutch (like his French books), but I think I'll wait to hear more detailed reviews as for me 50 quid is a bit eye-watering when I probably have some of the info in disparate sources already.

After a quick googling, it looks like you are right; no buttons on the cuffs of either foot or horse. I guess I just assumed they were there, since that's how the cuff is held down usually. (I take it the Swedes must have sewed theirs down? ) In the following; " Also, if you look at the many posts b...
