best book on conquering fear with horses,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Ride with Confidence! (Paperback)
I've ordered and read every book on dealing with issues of fear around horses. I think it is very helpful, practical and well-written. I have three horses I ride and drive, each with a different level of confidence. This book will help me with each of my horses. I would recommend this book to anyone who would like more confidence riding, jumping, or driving their horse. In fact I have several friends I plan to buy a copy for.
