More specifically it is used to document the breeding of [[Thoroughbred]]s and related [[foundation bloodstock]] such as the [[Arabian horse]]. Today it is published every four years by [[Weatherbys]].<ref name="WeatherbysHistory">{{cite web\|title=History of the General Stud Book\|url=https://www.weatherbys.co.uk/horses-racing/bloodstock-studbook/history-of-the-general-stud-book\|website=Weatherbys\|~~accessdate~~access-date=2 January 2018}}</ref> Volume 4749 was published in ~~2013~~2021. <ref>{{Cite web \|~~title~~last=Lexa \|date=2022-02-15 \|title=The magic of the printed word as Weatherbys ~~Limited —~~keeps ~~Stud~~alive the spirit of 1791 ~~Book~~\|url = https://www.weatherbys.~~co.uk~~bank/insights/general-stud-book~~\|website~~/ \|access-date=2024-09-08 ~~www.weatherbys.co.uk~~\|~~accessdate~~ website=Weatherbys ~~2015-06~~Private Bank \|language=en-13US}}</ref> In 1791, [[Weatherbys\|James Weatherby]] published ''Introduction to a General Stud Book'', which was an attempt to collect [[Pedigree chart\|pedigree]]s for the horses racing then and that had raced in the past. It was filled with errors and was not at all complete, but it was popular and led in 1793 to the first volume of the ''General Stud Book'' which had many more pedigrees and was more accurate. Volume one was revised many times, the most important being in 1803, 1808, 1827, 1859 and 1891.<ref name=Montgomery42>Montgomery ''The Thoroughbred'' p. 42</ref> The General Stud Book has been owned by Weatherbys ever since; the two [[horse racing]] authorities that cover the United Kingdom, the [[British Horseracing Authority]] in Great Britain (historically the [[Jockey Club]]) and [[Horse Racing Ireland]] for all of the island of Ireland, including Northern Ireland, do not maintain the registry.<ref name=Weatherbys>[{{Cite web \|url=http://www.weatherbys.co.uk/breeding \|title=Weatherby's History] \|access-date=31 August 2007 \|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20060504015052/http://www.weatherbys.co.uk/breeding \|archive-date=4 May 2006 \|url-status=dead }}</ref><ref name=UKJC>[{{Cite web \|url=http://www.thejockeyclub.co.uk/doc.php?id=41557 \|title=British Jockey Club] \|access-date=31 August 2007 \|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070901041414/http://www.thejockeyclub.co.uk/doc.php?id=41557 \|archive-date=1 September 2007 \|url-status=dead }}</ref><ref name=Irish>[{{Cite web \|url=http://www.goracing.ie/Content/HRI/hriinfo.aspx?id=634 \|title=Horse Racing Ireland] \|access-date=25 January 2010 \|archive-date=25 January 2010 \|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100125045544/http://www.goracing.ie/Content/HRI/hriinfo.aspx?id=634 \|url-status=dead }}</ref> This differs from the [[American Stud Book]] which is owned by the [[~~The~~ Jockey Club (United States)\|United States Jockey Club]].<ref name=USJC>[http://www.jockeyclub.com/registry.asp Jockey Club History]</ref> ==See also== Line 20: ==References== {{refbegin\|60em}} * [https://web.archive.org/web/20070901041414/http://www.thejockeyclub.co.uk/doc.php?id=41557 British Jockey Club] ~~accessed on~~Retrieved 30 August 2007 * [http://www.goracing.ie/Content/HRI/hriinfo.aspx?id=634 Horse Racing Ireland] ~~accessed~~{{Webarchive\|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100125045544/http://www.goracing.ie/Content/HRI/hriinfo.aspx?id=634 on\|date=25 January 2010 }} Retrieved 25 January 2010 * {{cite book \|author=Montgomery, E.
