Handbook for New Horsemen 

 

 

      This is an outstanding book full of the information, about horses and keeping horses, that no one thinks to tell you because they assume you already know.  This is a book designed for those people who are new to horses in general and have not decided what breed that they want to have yet.  

      It has a lot of the generic information about different disciplines including English, Western, Gaited Horses and such.   There are 128 pages of general horse information for all horsemen and want-to-be horsemen and women.  This book gets down to the nitty-gritty of horse buying and  ownership.  It will answer many of those questions that you have about getting into the horse world.  If not, then you have a place to call to find out the answers to your questions.
