This is a great book with information that has not gone out of date. It is information that will be used and used again.

There are many books on horse care. I have been raising horses for over 40 years and this book is, in my opinion, a very good source.

This book contains comprehensive, thorough information. We have used it extensively to research questions for the 4-H Horse Bowl team.
