Description
Polo, one of the world’s oldest team sports, originated from cavalry training exercises in Asia and is famously known as the “sport of kings.” With a rich history and deep connections to royalty, it’s no surprise that polo is a favorite of the British royal family, with famous enthusiasts like Winston Churchill and General Patton. But beyond its regal associations, polo boasts a diverse, global community that has helped elevate the sport to a beloved international pastime. Polo Heritage takes readers on a global journey, from the vast plains of Mongolia to the vibrant polo fields of Mexico, Barbados, and Pakistan. Explore prestigious tournaments played on grass, sand, and snow, step into the historic polo grounds of India, and experience the elegance of British polo society. Discover the world-renowned Argentinian polo culture, home to some of the finest polo families. With an introduction by legendary player Nacho Figueras and striking original photography by Aline Coquelle, this book offers a contemporary and authentic look at the enduring spirit of polo.
