Another great DK book
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
This book is packed full of clear, concise information and wonderful pictures. I would recomment this book to anyone starting out with horses, which I assume is who this is written for. It is very informative and easy to understand. The 100′s of great pictures are an added bonus, you don’t usually see so many step by step pictures. It is informative enough for adults not to get bored, yet easy enough for the young horseman to understand as well. This is a terrific addition to any equine library.

1 of the best out of the rest!

This horse book was awesome! I will be taking riding lessons this summer and this book helped me get a head start on horse care, like grooming, feed, tack and much,much more! It’s a great book for any horse lover even if you don’t have or ride a horse. This book makes it a fun, simple way to learn about how to take care of a horse! This is one of my favorite horse care guides out of all of them!

Excellent Start
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
I found this book to be quite interesting, I bought it as a gift for a friend who is just getting in to horses, and looked it over before giving it. Although most of it is basic, it is not condescending towards the reader, and has many interesting facts. I even learned a few things, and have been a horse person for over 17 years. The photo’s chosen to accompany the work are usually helpful, and overall this is an excellent book for someone getting started with horses.

Good reference book on horses
Rating:4 out of 5 stars
I bought this book for my daughter who just loves horses. She really enjoys having me read it to her and looking at the pictures. It is a good general reference book for people wanting to learn more about horses.

very informative – good reference manual for the young rider
Rating:4 out of 5 stars
This is a well written manual that contains all of the basics of caring for your horse, tack, and pasture. It’s easy to read and understand, but doesn’t insult your intelligence. There are plenty of colorful illustrations too. I bought this for my 10 year old daughter who recently received her first horse and is enrolled in horse riding and ground work lessons. She likes this book and thinks it’s informative, but not necessarily “captivating” reading…afterall, it is a manual. I highly recommend this book to keep on your shelf as reference material for your junior rider.

Good book for someone looking for a broad range of info
Rating:4 out of 5 stars
A lot of information in this book. It covers just about everything. I was hoping for a little more information on feeding, but overall a good buy. One note: if you are looking for tack and riding info, this book focuses mostly on english riding. There is very little reference to western riding.

Excellent for new riders
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
This is a great book for first learning about horses, how to care for them, feeding, symptoms of illnesses, and it’s simple to read and understand. It gives the basics for people who might want to own a horse for the first time so that you can know what to watch out for and take the best care of your horse. I’d recommend this book for first time horse owners, and for people working with horses for the first time. It’s comprehensive and gives you a lot of great info.
