Rating: Summary: I love it love it love it Review: Although I am just a teenager (not even 15), I have been juggling ideas back and forth over what I wanted to do once I got out of college. I was thinking about a jocky, but I am getting to big (almost as tall as my older brother), I thought about a breeder, but then there was also the aspect of trainer and the rewards you get when done right and this book just about decided it for me. I got the book from the library and immediately after reading it, I asked my dad to buy it for me for Christmas. Horses have got to be the best creatures on earth and when you train them, the possibilities are endless. This book just goes to show that when you love something enough, go for it! You can do anything. In training, this book has got to be number one. It shows how to do EVERYTHING. Even train for Endurance Riding! *g* This book is the best and will always be on MY list of winners.
Rating: Summary: Fantastic All Around Information for the Horse Person! Review: I originally bought the companion book Basic Riding by these two knowledgeable horsewomen. Then someone recommended this book to me when I had to teach my horse how to work on a lunge-line. It is incredible how the authors are able to present their information to accommodate many levels of horsepeople - from beginner through advanced - for western/stock, dressage/hunter/jumper, driving, etc. I recommend these books every opportunity I have for the teenage through adult horse person who wants to have a strong background in overall horse training and riding. During the last 3 years, since I have owned these books, I have gone back to them repeatedly. I only wish I had them 6 years ago when I returned to riding.
