Not much in sports looks more regal than the sight of a well-turned-out rider on a beautifully groomed horse, two fine athletes working as a single unit. There is, of course, far more to horsemanship than mounting up and slipping a pair of shiny leather boots into the irons. In easy-to-follow steps, this thoroughly illustrated, readable primer by an internationally accredited horse show judge patiently takes beginning riders through the requisite paces from the simplest notions to the more sophisticated concepts of equine psychology and communication.
Judy Richter, former AHSA Horsewoman of the Year, and recognized AHSA judge
