Far from completeJul 13, 2010 This book covers a lot of topics, but none of them in any detail. I've been taking lessons and leasing a horse for several years now and am considering taking the leap into owning a horse, and I was hoping to find a book that would give me a realistic idea of the expenses and responsibilities involved with actually keeping a horse. This is not that book.
This book might be fine to give to kids who just need a cursory understanding of horse care, but is not useful for anyone seriously considering buying or keeping horses.

Another great DK bookSep 03, 2009 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.
very informative - good reference manual for the young riderJun 29, 2009 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.
Horse Care ManuelDec 30, 2008 Very informative book, I would recommend this book to anyone interested in owning or owns a horse.
