What an informative, well-written book full of useful and realistic ideas and suggestions! All do able and easy. Gave frank, frill-less and 100% sound advice on owning a horse, where to keep it and HOW to keep it-cheaply! Prices quoted were lower than I can find anywhere (for thermometers & tack, etc.) but a wonderful book none the less. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
This book is well written and great for beginners.
