The Horse Riding & Care Handbook is filled with advice and information that will be of use and interest to both the novice enthusiast and the experienced rider. Beginning riders will learn what equipment is necessary for both the horse (bridles, bits, and saddles) and rider (hats, gloves, and boots), and what to look for in a riding school and riding instructor. Intermediate riders will learn how to move from the confines of the school into open-country riding (hills, riding through water, long-distance riding, and handling falls). For the most advanced rider, there is thorough information on competitive riding, including dressage, show jumping, eventing, and endurance riding.Packed with detailed information on tack and equipment for horse and rider, grooming, housing, and basic health care, The Horse Riding & Care Handbook is the perfect gift for everyone who's ever dreamed of riding and owning their own horse, and for every horse rider who aspires to improve their level of skill.
