5 out of 5 stars One of the best...   September 15, 2007
equestrian-related books I have read. Most of it confirmed what I already knew (but its always nice to know you're doing it right), but the tidbits of "new" stuff were invaluable. And I found it emphasized three main points 1) establish and maintain forwardness, 2) take your time to do it right, don't take short cuts, and 3) the horse's well-being (both mentally and physically) is paramount.

I also very much enjoyed the final section on the Spanish Riding School, including how they train the Airs and the history of the School. One warning: it will likely be dry for those not truly interested in producing a well-trained, very responsive mount. I also tried to read it in small doses, so I could process the information. But it is a MUST for all dressage riders.

Classic that deserves to be on every horseowner's bookshelf. Wished I'd have read this gem long ago.

As a beginner to classical dressage, I found this book explained very clearly and logically how things should be done. I recommend this book to anyone that is curious about classical dressage!!



5 out of 5 stars Classis Horsemanship Instruction   July 12, 2006

This is one of those "must have" reference books on horsemanship. I'm one of those riders who consider this book a "bible". It is quite technical in some ways, but provides straightforward rules to the art of horsemanship. I apply Podhajsky's advice in my riding every time I climb aboard. The best thing I've gotten from the book is the idea that practice is the most important way to apply these principles....and always, calm, forward & straight.

This is one of the all time great books for people who are ready to leave the shallows of horsemanship and begin to learn how to ride correctly and train their horse correctly.
Alois Podhajsky was one of the great horsemen of the twentith century and his works are an awesome body of information every serious horse person should read.
