Shedden, Lady Diana. “To Whom the Goddess,” Riding and Hunting for Women. Reprint Edition. 1932. Book is in very good minus condition; dust jacket is in good condition—endpapers and page edges show foxing, and jacket shows mild soiling, chipping, creasing and minor tears. Co-written by Lady Apsley, with an introduction by the Earl of Lonsdale.
This book was one of those titles released only in the U.K., and as is nearly always the case with books of Anglo-American appeal with no U.S. edition, it is uncommon. Using tradition, history, literature, and art as its resources, the book offers a thorough survey of the upper class woman as equestrian and huntress, from the Middle Ages to the 20th Century. Includes many pages of illustration.
