Originating from the training of cavalry units in Asia, polo has grown to be one of the world’s oldest team sports, now spanning continents, cultures and classes. The sport's illustrious and storied history is charted in Assouline's Polo Heritage, an extensive guide to the sport of kings from Mongolia to Mexico, and Barbados to Pakistan. In addition to delving into polo’s heritage and the pastime's devoted historical followers — Winston Churchill and General Patton among them — the book explores the most prestigious tournaments, the high society world of British polo, and Argentinian polo culture. Featuring an introduction from player Nacho Figueras and original photography by Aline Coquelle.
