5.0 out of 5 stars Very thorough for riders of all levels
I am adult learning to ride English so I can hunt and jump. This book was recommended by my instructor and it has been very helpful. It goes into great detail for more advanced riding, which doesn't interest me, but it is an excellent resource for riders of all skill levels. It is written in a language that's very easy to understand for the beginner.
5.0 out of 5 stars Informative and fun to read- must have for horseback riders
I must have rented this book at least five times from the library before I finally purchased it. I consider it a necessity for anyone interested in learning more about riding- doesn't matter if you're a beginner or a professional. Each page is covered in large, high-quality photographs, which makes it much easier to read and understand.
5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Book
For the riding enthusiast this is a wonderful supplement to riding lessons. 8 more words required but I'm finished, so there.

Excellent.
This really is a complete guide
This book is very a comprehensive guide to English riding. Exactly what I was looking for. As someone else noted, there's no nonsense about breeds and such. I really liked the sections on dressage and jumping, where the author provides very useful diagrams, exercises and and explains the differences between competition levels. That is exactly what I was looking for. I think that this book is totally worth the price! The only thing I could criticize is the font being a bit on the small side, but that way you end up with more content packed on fewer pages.
Lovely
Beautiful book
Excellent guide to all types of horse riding
Excellent book for all level of riders BUT it is more suited to the advanced rider. It covers a lot of subjects from getting started as a beginner rider (the first 105 pages) to competition level in Dressage, Showjumping and Cross-country. I would view this as a book for a life-time of reading, a resource that you can keep going back to over the years. I particularly like how it covers the fitness & feeding of horses, rider fitness is covered really well in diagram format as well as written and the mental preparation for a rider. Excellent glossary of information too. As a beginner rider myself, lots of this book is way over my skill level but it is written so well that it is a pleasure to read even if I can't actually do what they are talking about. So if you are looking for a step by step guide to the basics, this book won't help you enough but if you are looking for a book that will be used over and over again as you advance then it's worth having especially if you are an information nerd.
Really complete!
Ein derartiges Buch sucht man auf Deutsch vergeblich, hier ist wirklich die gesamte Reiterei vom ersten Aufsitzen bis zu internationalen Turnieren behandelt. Alles ist ausführlich erklärt und reichlich mit Bildern und Zeichnungen verdeutlicht. Eine gute Ergänzung zu den deutschen Standardwerken der FN, und die englischen Fachbegriffe lernt man beim Lesen gleich mit.
Un bon ouvrage complet
Ouvrage complet et intéressant pour motiver une adolescente a la lecture en anglais...A recommander comme livre de chevet utile et agréable .
