Description
Horse, Follow Closely is about the relationship training methods that are steeped in common sense and the age-old wisdom of the author's Native American ancestors. The book begins with an analysis of how horses came to live with the Natives of North America and horses' impact on Native life. Native Americans were able to create such strong relationship with horses in a short time because they understood that "a horse is a horse." Learning to balance the relationship between horse and human show more is the missing link to becoming a masterful horseman or horsewoman. The book describes not only the techniques involved for relationship training, but also the belief system and attitude that must be applied to all methods of horsemanship. In addition to presenting the methods and philosophy of relationship training, Horse, Follow Closely also includes many stories and legends of Native Americans and their horses, all of which teach the reader something new about himself and his relationship with his horse. show lessTags

This is a beautiful book with photos that are a joy to look at. The text describes how to establish and develop a relationship with your horse. It could be cataloged as a book on horse training but it really focuses on how the horse thinks and how a human can respond to the horse in an intelligent way. The author includes safety information, something I appreciate, as well as plenty of horse stories. This photos in the book would be enjoyed by anyone who loves horses and the text is encouraging to those attempting to train or work with a problem horse.
