Breaking a horse, done right, means teaching rather than forcing. M. Horace Hayes lays out an illustrated method, from the theory of horse-breaking and mouthing to rendering a horse docile and teaching it to jump. Systematic, humane instruction from a noted authority. For anyone schooling a young horse who wants sound results without cruelty. Bring on a willing, well-mannered mount.

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.
