Riding well is a science, and Claude Bourgelat sets out its rules. From the horseman's seat and the effect of the hand to the trot, the stop, and the correction of a disobedient horse, he builds classical horsemanship step by step. A foundational manual of the manege. Master the reins from one of the fathers of veterinary horsemanship.

Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
