Human and animal engage in subtle, unspoken forms of communication through gaze, touch, and training that Weil (herself a longtime equestrian) posits to be more complicated than a simple matter of physical animal strength submitted to human intellectual will. However, as Weil so astutely observes, the external gloss of this imagery, whether hegemonic or subversive in nature, was always underpinned by the quotidian relations between horse and human. Print culture likewise ranged between the dignity of the amazone and the scandal of Jewish American Adah Menken’s (1835–68) scantily clad horse-riding feats. Bernard, (five versions, 1801–05), but was also destabilized by artists like Théodore Géricault (1791–1824) and Rosa Bonheur (1822–99), who gave their equine figures equal (or greater) priority as compared to their humans. The classical image of the mounted sovereign literally and figuratively governing his subjects from “above” continued to be referenced by equestrian statues and paintings like Jacques-Louis David’s Bonaparte Crossing the Alps at Mount St. While the text incorporates a sweeping range of sources and media, from novels and paintings to public health treatises on the salutary benefits of horsemeat for the French working classes, it was the image of the horse-and his/her accompanying rider––that pervaded the popular discourses and imaginaries of animality and humanity. The non-speaking role played by these equine creatures was, the book persuasively argues, a largely unappreciated but central aspect of the century’s material, economic, and social history. The volume deftly explores the complex interdependence between human beings and the omnipresent carthorses, aristocratic purebreds, racing steeds, circus performers, and military mounts. In Precarious Partners, Kari Weil reveals how equine culture reached its apex in France during the nineteenth century, as workhorses flooded overcrowded Parisian streets and the practice of horse riding, once primarily associated with the military and nobility, was taken up by a wider swath of society.
