Members of the royal family, from the Queen to her youngest grandchild, are taught to ride almost as soon as they can walk. Even as a nonagenarian, Her Majesty still rides every weekend at Windsor and refuses to wear a hard hat! This engrossing book traces the fascination of the royals with their animals including intimate details of each of the present and early members of the family's favourite pets, with anecdotes relating to each of them and their idiosyncrasies.
