This C Level manual builds on material covered in The United States Pony Club Manual of Horsemanship: Basics for Beginners/D Level. Whether you are a Pony Clubber who has passed the D Level tests or simply a rider who has mastered the same basics, this manual will enable you to increase your skills and teach you what you must know in order to ride independently and correctly with good position, balance, and use of the aids on the flat, over fences, and in the open. At the intermediate level you are expected to take more responsibility for the care and management of your pony, and you will learn how to do this as well. In addition, you will learn the skills needed for conditioning and preparing your pony and yourself for competitions and special events. From the C Level, you may go on to higher Pony Club ratings such as B, H A, or A Ratings, or specialize in such disciplines as dressage, show jumping, eventing, and showing. Or you may just want to have the pleasure of caring for your horse or pony and participating in your favorite riding activities. Either way, The United States Pony Club Manual of Horsemanship: Intermediate Horsemanship/C Level will give you an excellent basis in horsemanship for the lifelong enjoyment of horses and horse sports.

The Radcliffe Press 2007, cm.14,5x22, pp.XVII,325, ill.bn. legatura editoriale cartonata, sopraccoperta figurata. Roland Hill's biography, A Time Out of Joint, is a remarkable and moving personal story and much more: it enables readers to re-live European history during the darkest period of Nazi Germany and World War II, when traditional European culture and civilization generally seemed to be extinguished, but also to experience the return of peace and a time of hope. Roland Hill was born in Hamburg in 1920 to prosperity and culture -- his father was a sugar trader and his mother an opera singer. Both were of Jewish descent but had converted to Christianity. But the stable and tolerant world he was born into changed dramatically with Hitler's rise to power in 1933. The family moved to Prague, Vienna and Milan. Austria became Hill's spiritual home where he was received into the Roman Catholic church -- a move which decisively shaped his life - and where he started his journalistic career. Nazi persecution scattered the family and he sought refuge in Britain, totally alone and with only a £5 note, classed simply as a ""Refugee from Nazi Persecution"". Roland Hill survived the European maelstrom to take a full part in Europe's resurgence and his moving story, full of drama and atmosphere - and based on a unique gift for friendship -- vividly evokes the highs and lows of his remarkable life.

A cura di Matteo Gardonio. Trento, Scripta - Comunicazione Editoria 2020, cm.15x21, pp.130, (20) illustrazioni in bianco e nero. brossura con bandelle e copertina figurata a colori. La pubblicazione degli appunti e preventivi dello scultore Riccardo Piter (1899-1976) ci offre uno spaccato della Milano tra la Grande Guerra e la ricostruzione, con un tessuto sociale e industriale di grande fermento; un artista, infatti, legato soprattutto a committenze di carattere privato, non poteva di certo schierarsi per partito preso e, in particolare, chi eseguiva monumenti sepolcrali come lo scultore avianese, si trovava a onorare la memoria del proprio caro da parte di chi glielo chiedeva. Drammi e tragedie di vite vissute in quegli anni, venivano scolpite nella pietra e nel bronzo dallo scalpello di uno dei più prolifici autori dell'epoca.
