STOREY'S GUIDE TO TRAINING HORSES is a comprehensive volume that builds on the foundation of good horse sense, and takes the trainer step by step through the training process, from handling the foal to ground work to mounted lessons and trailer training. While most training books focus on riding, this guide takes a broad view, presenting different methods and alternatives so you can tailor your approach to your particular horse.
