“This book is refreshingly void of any ego bolstering frills and endless ‘tooting my own horn’ anecdotes. I really like it. Horse training is not rocket science, but requires a good knowledge of the nature of horses. Nanette Levin captured this very well and I like the solutions. Actually, I will surely try a few.”
