« London 1677, folio.
This, as the Duke says himself, is not a translation of the Methode et invention nouvelle of 1657, but a different work which may he regarded as a supplement to it. It has heen translated into French under the same title as the Methode et Invention , folio, London, 1671, without plates, and re-translated by Solleysel with anotations, in-4°, Paris, 1667. In German with the French by Penauer, Baron de Pernay, folio. Nuremberg, 1700, with plates; reprinted, folio, Nuremberg, 1674.
An edition of the whole works was printed, 2 vols, folio, London, 1743. There are some copies of this edition with a new title dated 1738. It has also been printed at Nuremberg and at Paris, with additional plates. There is also a selection from the works entitled : The Cavalier and the Lady , in-8° Oxford, 1872. » Huth (1887)

« Quand Newcastle rentra en Angleterre, il se retira dans ses terres et il occupa ses loisirs en cédant aux instances de ses compatriotes et en publiant, pour eux, une édition anglaise de sa Méthode . Il en remania alors complètement le texte et la disposition, ajouta, supprima ou modifia certains chapitres.
Cet ouvrage fut peu après traduit et publié en français : Méthode nouvelle et invention extraordinaire de dresser les Chevaux . » Mennessier de La Lance (1915-1921)
