When I look at this book on my shelf I wish I had my money back. I paid a lot more than the Amazon list price for it. The photos are beautiful but the text is sorely lacking. If you are looking for methods, you won't find it here. It only promises what you will find and never do, page after page- right to the end. I already have a wonderful relationship with my horses (at liberty) and I thought that I might learn about someone else's methods and possibly improve my own. It is more mystery and alure, no real how to info ever given. I guess something was lost in the translation.
