The Miniature Horse

Rating:
Summary: THIS BOOK IS ONLY FOR NOVICES
Review: I just got done reading this book. It is a very good "broad" overview of the world of miniature horses, but I am a little disappointed because on many of the aspects such as care, showing, conformation, etc. etc. the author instructs the reader to read "other" books that go into more detail. I feel that if you have never owned a horse before, and are interested in minis, it's a good book for you. But if you are like me, and already have knowledge of equine behavior, this may just be a simple review of what you already know. Definitly a good book for the novice, but the more experienced horse-person will not gain a whole lot.

Summary: Truly a wonderful guide to a fascinating world
Review: This book is a wonderful source of information. It is a non-fiction guide to choosing, buying, owning, showing, and breeding miniature horses. This book was written by Jill Sweedlow Coffey, a miniature horse owner, shower, and breeder. The information in the book is relevant, helpful, and educational while it explains to people the quirks and twists of owning these adorable animals. The author artfully includes her own educational experiences with her minis along with the must-have knowledge that a beginner needs to aquire. Although I would not recommend this book to someone who is not interested in miniature horses, for those of us who are buying or who own minis, this book can be a life-saver.
