Review

"You couldn't erase the traditions if you tried. They are a part of our collective experience. Even if thirty years from now people ask 'Who was Bertalan de Némethy?' they will still be doing things his way." - William Steinkraus "All horsemen will learn from reading this book. Ultimately, the horses themselves will benefit from this humane and thoughtful approach, giving them the confidence and freedom to do what we ask." - Joe Fargis "Mr. de Némethy represented the quintessential triumph of a generation of riders and instructors that possessed habituated excellence. He knew the classical tradition of the equestrian arts.... in his book, CLASSIC SHOW JUMPING: The de Némethy Method, he splendidly explains the basic tenants of his teachings." - Charles de Kunffy
