author
Best known for a compact 19th-century guide to horse handling, this little-known writer is remembered through a practical manual on taming and training difficult horses. The surviving record is thin, which gives the work an old-book curiosity of its own.

by P. R. Kincaid, John J. Stutzman
P. R. Kincaid is credited as a co-author, alongside John J. Stutzman, of The Arabian Art of Taming and Training Wild & Vicious Horses, a short manual that has been preserved and reissued through Project Gutenberg and other public-domain catalogs.
Reliable biographical details about Kincaid are hard to confirm from readily available sources, so very little can be said with confidence about the author as a person. What does come through clearly is the book's focus: practical horsemanship, especially methods for handling difficult horses in an era when horse training was an everyday skill.
For modern listeners, Kincaid survives less as a fully documented literary figure and more as the name attached to a piece of historical animal-training writing. That makes the book interesting not only for its advice, but also as a glimpse into older traditions of horse care and control.
