Be careful about selecting Storey's Guide to Raising Horses versus Storey's Guide to Training Horses. These are two different books by the same author.'Raising Horses' has great information about stabling and pasturing horses which includes why horses are more comfortable in a herd situation, etc. It also includes information about nutrition and health issues.'Training Horses' does not include any of the above information but covers safety issues, ground work, preparing horses for vet exams & farriers, introducing a horse to saddling & riding, etc.Unfortunately, .com is treating these two books as if they are the same and since I checked one out from the library and I own the other, I wanted to warn buyers so that they can get what they actually need.

A horse is a beautiful creature, but it needs it own special sort of care. "Storey's Guide to Raising Horses: Breeding, Care, Facilities" is a care guide from Heather Smith Thomas, who has over five decades of experience in her field. In this manual, she discusses the nuances of horse care, such as hoof care, day to day life, foals, fencing, and even discusses greener horse raising in regards to the environment. "Storey's Guide to Raising Horses" is a solid reference any who want to raise horses should embrace.

I found this book very helpfull and enjoyable to read (easy read). It is wrote for a someone who knows little about horses, which is what I am. I plan to use many of the techniques and as in all help books it is trial and error to see what works with animals. I was very happy that the safty issue was put on such a high level, since these are big boys I am dealing with. This is a must read for all begginers.The book arrived before the date and was in excellent condition, way to go !

This is a great book for first-time or experienced horsemen. The only (minor) negative is that some of the info is repeated-- but that does help in remembering it. There is a lot of info that is valuable from gentling your horse to training it to ride. Covers feeding and housing requirements too.

Talks about training starting with foals. Good background for understanding adult horses and getting to know your own horse. Very good information for handling horses

We purchased this to add to our library inventory and it has been popular, even with those who have been working with horses all their lives. Great reference!

for a beginner like myself this came as a great resource, i personally own sever Storey's Guide books that help me determine my future livestock actions

Just what I need to help train my horses. The quality of the book is good ,and the wasn't bad either.Delivery sooner than what was predicated.
