2.0 out of 5 stars Not quite what I was looking for, April 24, 2000

By A Customer

I bought this book hoping that it would have information that would be useful to both me (moderate horse experience) and my husband (no horse experience). It turned out to be too basic for me and overwhelming for him. It would be a great book for someone wanting a broad overview of the horse farm business. It was very well written and contained loads of information - just not exactly what I was looking for this time.
