A Great Classic,
By A Customer
This review is from: Horsemanship (Hardcover)
Among top European trainers, this book is widely reguarded as a great classic. It covers the full spectrum of dressage training from the very beginning, with the young horse, on to the highest levels. While the prose is very elegant, it is not the easiest book to read. And, there are many in-depth discussions of training theory. However, all serious students of dressage should own this book. It is one of the most correct and complete works on this subject.
