Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Complete Idiot's Guide to Horseback Riding.
It was written in an easy to understand style. Information was good and easy to put into practice.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - To jbsanderson
I read your sentence and it made perfect sense to me. It means that while you are riding in a counterclockwise circle, with the horse's left shouolder on your inside, then your horse should pick up the left lead of the canter, or the inside lead in any case so that it is more comfortable for the horse to go around corners and keep the same steady pace.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Simple but effective
I think this book was very helpful. I was new to horseback riding and this gave the basic information I needed to know, plus additional information I'll use in the future. If you are new to riding then I think this book will be beneficial for you, too.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Great Book for beginners and Advanced!
This book is definately in my book shelf, because it passed my reveiew of being a very helpful horse book!

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - A dummy had to have written this.
I know very little about horses but apparently I know more than the person who wrote this book. I bought this book to catch up with my wife's riding skills. What a joke. Do not even waste your time or money on this book. Purchase a book from Linda Tellington Jones or John Lyons instead if you really want to learn and understand what you are reading, and be able to apply it to your horse(s) later on.
