Barbara Burn has been riding other people's horses since childhood. A New Yorker, she is an executive editor of a major museum's publication division, and co-author of the best-selling The Whole Horse Catalog.

From the Back Cover

Get the most out of riding - even if you don't own a horse? In The Horseless Rider, Barbara Burn reveals the information that riders, regardless of level, will want to know. She begins with the basics, such as styles of riding, since horseless riders need to be able to handle any mount that is offered at any time. She explains how to choose an instructor and how to spot the best horse in a rental stable, and provides important facts regarding the responsibilities, legal and otherwise, that go with riding someone else's horse. Whether it's renting or sharing a horse, landing a job in a stable, or exercising or showing other people's horses, this wise guide uncovers all the options horseless riders can explore to get themselves into the saddle. (6 x 9, 256 pages, illustrations)
