Riding

Rating:
Summary: Outstanding! The best book on riding I have ever seen.
Review: It is hard to top a book this good.By far the most comprehensive information needed to ride safely and well.Yet so clearly written a child could understand it. Small wonder that this book is endorsed by Olympic Gold Medalist and twice World Champion Bruce Davidson,and by the United States Equestrian Team.

Summary: Covers it all, and clearly
Review: The best possible book for the beginning rider, this book doesn't stick simply to riding, but has chapters on taking lessons, the first horse (buy, lease or rent?), riding clothes, tack and equipment, horse psychology, mounting-dismounting and falls, riding position, riding aids for each gate and movement, cavalletti and jumping, care of the horse, and a diagnostic chapter on problems and emergencies.

Filled with clear line drawings and straight-to-the point text, this book does a thorough job of covering just about everything you could need to know to get started in riding. I use it in conjunction with Cherry Hill's Arena Exercises as the basis of riding lessons.

Summary: It is practical and a necessity for all young riders!!!
Review: This book goes over everything a beginning rider or just someone who wants to go over riding tecniques could ever want to go. If you want to learn a lot and have a good, well written horse book you should read this book. Once you are done reading this book you will find yourself a better and mone confident rider.
