The great man rather awkwardly shares--or shares his frustration at his inability to share--some of his secrets. Of more specific use are some of the examples offered in the "Feedback" section of the book by various students. To me, maybe the single most extraordinary thing is that Dorrance always said he'd recommend a book that might help make his points if he ever happened to read one, and one of the two he eventually recommended was Boone's "Kinship with All Life," which, of course, is about an unabashed animal communicator! (The other book--must check out--was "Dressage" by Wynmalen.) ( )

I liked this book, but it is written rather vaguely so I think it would be of most value to someone already somewhat experienced. The picture on the back of the book is very telling. Notice his body language around the horses and how much they like him. It says things from the horse's point of view and makes you think about different possible approaches to improve communication and cooperation. ( )
