This is a really great little book. It is very simple and to the point. It goes well with what Buck teaches at clinics. It also contains the same things you'll see on his videos. It is for anyone wanting to offer the horse a better deal. I use these same ways of teaching the horse and they do work when you allow the horse to learn it.

I love this book, but this book retails for 19.95 on brannaman.com. why are these sellers gouging the price of this book???

This book is a fine example of good things coming in small packages. I have other books by this author, and find them equally useful, but this slender volume is my favorite of his work. Like Ray Hunt and a few others, Brannaman belongs in every horseman's library.

I purchased this book after participating in a natural horsemanship clinic, on the recommendation of the clinician. The methods described really do work, although I think it's important to see them in action. My rescued thoroughbred used to be a pain in the neck to lead from barn to pasture and back... now he's an angel. These methods build trust and your relationship with the horse, nothing too harsh. Four stars instead of five because I could wish for more detailed explanations!
