5.0 out of 5 stars One of the BEST!, November 20, 2000
By 
This review is from: The Horse (Hardcover)
This book was recommended to me when I was attending college for Equine Studies. The book is great! A must for those who wish to know more indepth about the care of horses. Not for the novice. It was so nice to read a book that didn't spend most of the chapters on grooming and mounting. You won't find that here. The four authors are some of the best horsemen in the business and Anthony Borton was one of my professors. I highly recommend this book to anyone taking any Equine studies or anyone who wants to learn more than just the basics. (from physiology to genetics to feeding, etc.)

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent reference for horse owners and instructors, March 19, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: The Horse (Hardcover)
This book is on the approved review list for 4-H Hippology and Horse Bowl in New York State. It is an excellent source for reference for breeds, colors, feeding, anatomy, barn construction and management. It also offers an excellent source for learning about horse behavior, which is helpful to owners and trainers. It is an "adult" format and not geared for young readers. An must have addition for any horse library!
