I never have much time to spend reading - well I seem to be a doer rather than a reader but as Xmas is looming and I have been asked for ideas I thought that I wouldn't mind a horsey book. As endurance is my interest can anyone recommend a book that I might enjoy...old or new?
It's not endurance, but please read The Tao of equus by Linda Kohanov. I think everyone who is involved with horses in any way can learn something from it. I thought it was amazing.
For a good book about endurance, I would recommend 'Go the Distance' by Dr Nancy S Loving. I also have her book 'All Systems go' which is more of a Veterinary mannual. Both excellent IMO
Have just ordered Jilly Coopers new book 'Jump' to read over the winter (if I get any time!!)
I finished reading 'Jump' a few weeks ago. Took a bit of getting into but still enjoyed it. Preferred ' Riders'. Has anyone read Zara Philips 's autobiography?
As well as 'Go the Distance', I really like Marcy Pavord's 'Endurance Start to Finish'. Also 'Endurance Riding - from first steps to 100 Miles' by Claire Wilde.
