This book is amazing. It is easy to follow and pick out the exercises that your horse needs. Each exercise has step by step instructions and a picture to describe the exercise. It is well worth the money.

While choosing this book I was looking for some ideas how to build poles or some others objects for exercising a horse, but I did't find it in this book. I would recomend this book more to somebody that has not so much experiences with horses and would like to manage his own horse and learn some body language, how to approach and halter the horse, etc. but it doesn't go into the deep of the matter.
