A Way With Horses is a journey into the world of the horse. Understanding his natural instincts, how horses communicate with each other and the structure of the horse herd is the key to the author's approach. Through photographs and explanatory text we are able to see the world from the horse's perspective and learn how understanding the psychology of the horse enhances our relationship with them. A Way with Horses is relevant to any discipline, be it pony club, eventing, dressage, or for those who keep horses purely for recreation and companionship. It is a demonstation and celebration of a way of being with the horse, from initial handling through to ridden work, and illustrates the benefits, for both horse and human, that can be achieved with this approach.
