      Mark Rashid
      In this follow-up to his first book, Considering the Horse, Mark Rashid continues to share his gift for using communication, not force, in working with horses.

These tails deal with many facets of buying, owning and training horses. Stories of Arabs, appaloosas, and paint - mistrusted, and mistreated because of their breed - will give you a new perspective on these breeds and others. Rashid's accounts of horses bound for slaughter because they couldn't be trained will inspire you to give your own problem horse another look. And then Wil, the ugliest horse you could imagine, turns out to be the best on the ranch, you'll understand why a good horse is never a bad color.

It's a must read for all horse owners who care about their horses and the kind of relationship they have with them.
