 Rating: - USPC Manual - Beginning LevelI am a beginning & intermediate horseback riding instructor in Moscow, ID.

She is also a gifted horsewoman & teacher. She ... Read More Rating: - very good book to start withI advise anyone young who is seriously interested in horses to start with this book.
