By A Customer
This review is from: The Illustrated Guide to Horse Tack: For the English Rider (Hardcover)
Susan McBane has a written a very informative and wonderfully illustrated book. This book has the ability to appeal to both the beginner and experienced horse person. It is a book that can span many age groups, easily understandable to all. This book will be a constant companion for many riding levels. The text and accompanying illustrations will aid even the most seasoned rider. It serves as a great reference guide as well as an instructional manual for beginners. The book answers many technical questions about saddle sizing, bridles design, and many more useful topics. As a horse person myself, I wouldn't want to be without Illustrated Guide to Horse Tack. It is a great reference tool.

This review is from: The Illustrated Guide to Horse Tack: For the English Rider (Hardcover)
McBane has written an extremely thorough book which is of value to any rider who wishes to expand their knowledge of English tack and related equipment. The book has the following chapters: Saddles and Accessories; Bridles and Bits; Training Equipment; Headcollars and Halters' Clothing; Protective Equipment; Driving Equipment; Care of Equipment; and a good Index. The book is filled with color photos as well as black and white line drawings so you know exactly what she is referring to. As well, she puts in sidebars which go over the reasons why or why not you might want to use a particular piece of tack. Included are some history on various types of equipment and techniques for using the various items correctly. All in all this is a wonderful book for the English rider of any age or skill level. Don't hesitate to buy it.
