Great for beginners/horse-crazy kids!
Great book. Leans more towards beginners, which is always great, but I was hoping for some more advanced stuff. Not a big deal since I love reading anything horse related but this would be perfect for someone new to owning/leasing or someone who just brought their horses home! Always useful info to have around.

No horsing around
As novice horse owners, this was a great book with great “how-to” pictures. Will be a great reference. The book arrived well packaged and in the expected time frame.

All photos are black and white
Iâm excited to go through the book but also disappointed to notice upon receipt that all the photos are black and white. I didnât check publishing date when i ordered this and main reason I got this book was for the visual aids of all the photos. Colored photos are just so much more helpful especially with wound care.

Easy to Use
Very good reference material for horse care. Having pictures makes it a lot easier to understand. I would suggest anyone that has horses get this manual.
