Die Reitkunst der Welt an den Olympischen Spielen 1936 - International Equitation at the Olympic Games 1936
Gustav Rau, 1978 reprint, hardcover, 395 pgs., b/w photos (extensive), text in German, with selected translations in French / English.

Heads up Riders! This is a most interesting book by an extremely well respected German expert. All aspects are discussed, including the breeding of the horses (the gold and silver medalists in Dressage were out of the same dam) with pedigree tables, each sport in detail with extensive photos of participants / movements / obstacles and detailed comments (all photo captions in English / French / German; dressage portion is invaluable). As new. Scarce.
