5.0 out of 5 stars Well Written--25 stars, April 27 2004
Mark Rashid did an *EXCELLENT* job of writing this book! His way was very intriguing, and you just find yourself GLUED. Instead of coming out and giving you instructions on HOW to fix problems, he tells you stories of HIM fixing different problems. Also, I like his approach and way of thinking. He tells you that his ways may not be the best ways, and they may not always work, so you just rely on the book for some tips. But, I really liked it and got into it, and at the end - I cried. I couldn't help myself, it was like *I* was there doing it. If you have some problems with your horse, are looking into different methods of problem fixing, or are just looking for some good horse stories. GET THIS BOOK!

5.0 out of 5 stars Must read for any horse person, Jun 23 2003
By "beck4321" (East Fallowfield, PA United States) - See all my reviews
I have started riding again and plan to get my own horse(s) in the next year or so. I have collected several different books on horse care, horse problems, etc. This book was great. From the first few pages I was hooked and read it cover to cover. Most horse books that I've gotten I have only scanned the pages.

This book is great because it tells stories about particular horses, their problems, and how the problems were overcome, all by taking the time to "consider" how the horse feels about a situation. This book was really great reading, and I would suggest it for any horse lover.
