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.

This book was purchased as a Christmas gift from a wish list. It was just what she wanted. I was pleased with the speedy delivery from Amazon, especially during such a busy time of year! Keep up the good work.

This book was recommended to me because of the information it has on the muscular structure required for collection.

great book for all the "horse lovers" out there. very well written,explains in detail how to train your horse ( and rider for that matter) to be able to do all the maneuvers required for dressage.The best thing about this book is that it is not only for "dressage" people, it's about natural horsemanship and how to teach your horse to be the best that he can be, calm, confident, have respect for you and the most important how to develop relationship between you and your horse.
Love it, by far the book about training horses I have ever read.

This was a gift for a horse trainer friend - he reads it constantly - it's a classic
