About this title

Synopsis

A comprehensive guide to horses and ponies provides information on breeds and physical characteristics, equipment, care and training, riding activities, and their history and depiction in literature and mythology.

Review

This is a fully comprehensive guide to all aspects of the equestrian world. Included is information on the evolution of horses, their anatomy and body language, different breeds, day-to-day care, clothing and riding equipment, training and the various kinds of riding, competitions and uses to which horses are put. With superb colour photographs and illustrations giving clear and precise information this is an invaluable guide for beginners and experienced riders alike.

As with all Usborne guides, this is an excellent reference book, carefully researched and written for its young audience. However, the depth and value of the information included is also suitable for adults who require information on the subject. (Ages 8 to 12)
