The instant classic on horse movement is now completely revised and
updated with color illustrations.
Horses are born to move--a foal can walk, trot and gallop within hours
of birth. But not all horses move equally well, and the way a horse
moves can have a real impact on how you ride. In this unique book, Susan
Harris presents more than 300 eye-opening drawings that show you exactly
how horses move. She illustrates movements common to all horses,
pinpoints movement problems, reveals how a human in the saddle affects a
horse's movement and helps you become a better, more accomplished rider.
