Phenomenal Book July 7, 2006
C.K. (LA)
I just happened to stop by a used tack shop one day and found this book in there. I respect George Morris very highly and am looking forward to learning all that I can from this book. I haven't been teaching all that long, and this book lists many excercises that help teach beginners while keeping it fun and interesting. A must read for any trainer!
all trainers must read this December 2, 1999

when I started training kids to ride I lacked the knowledge of specific exercises to isolate each part of the rider. George gives you every tool to do what he does with his clients, follow it like its the bible. At my farm a copy is kept is the trunk, it is considered the manual and it settles disputes quickly. He teaches you not only how to train a rider, but also the quality standards that true horsemen demand. This one needs to be in print, all people out there trying to be trainers should have a copy of this close by, I suggest following it to the letter. Thank you George Morris and Gordon Wright, you have raised my expectations for my students and for myself.

George's beginner book had a tremendous influence on elevating my skills as an instructor of beginner riders. Even working as a part-time instructor, my riders had more blue ribbons and championships (from leadline and walk/trot to 2'6" fences) at local and some recognized AHSA shows than students riding with full-time professionals on more expensive horses. It is unfortunate that the book is out of print--George's information is absolutely timeless.
