Kindle Customer: Awesome, Awesome book. I am so pleased Mr. Rashid has willingly shared such intimately awesome equine information. This is the best book I have ever read on understanding and communication with horses. Thank you Mr. Rashid! I have learned so very much!!

Cosmo Topper: A book that helps with getting the owner’s mindset in order and reminds the reader that a horse is a mirror of the anxiety and doubts of the rider. The book asserts repeatedly the need for patience, leadership, and encourages us to recognize when our egos get in the way of listening to the horse. I’ll be re-reading this over and over as the years go by. Thank you, Mr. Rashid

nele: Never ever thought I would be emotional with a book like this, it just has a bit of everything. It’s a damn good book, with lots of new insights. It’s my second book, but I’m gonna read them all.

Amazon Customer: I purposely read Mark's books slowly, a few pages every morning while I sip my coffee. This way I can truly digest his reflections on being calm, consistent and self aware; all things that are paramount when dealing with horses , or anything else in life for that matter!

Bossy: Highly recommend any of Rashid's books. He has such a talent for writing and putting words to paper which just absolutely captivate you from start to finish.
If you are struggling with your mindset when approaching horses, Rashid does a stellar job of breaking through some mental cages which we all fall into when working with/training horses. Very convicting and challenging to read! I have to pace myself when I sit down to read his books otherwise I would read them all in one setting.

Cannot recommend this enough!

Liza Jane: I have many of Mark's earlier books and enjoyed them all thoroughly. Mark is wise and communicates so well through stories. The title of this one caught me because I have a new horse, and we've gotten off to a bit of a rocky start. This book contains so many important insights to be found nowhere else in print! Mark is such an expert at distilling the wisdom of an experienced horseperson who seeks to understand, not dominate. I find his points to be so easily absorbed from his stories. And unlike in his first 4 books, Mark seems to have found his voice as a writer and teacher, adding more of his own interpretations of the stories, which I find very helpful. This book is really helping me get to the heart of what is important in building my new relationship. It's a hard book to put down, but I make myself do it so I can more fully absorb and appreciate each chapter.

Mark has a way of boiling down what's important and touching the hearts of all true horse lovers.

R: My favourite story was the one about The Black. I shed tears reading this book. It has touched me so deeply. I love to recount the stories to my friends and family. They are so beautifully told and will live for ever in hearts and minds.

Janetmaclellan: making me look at things differently, always good to look at things from different point.

helen underwood miller: Another wonderful book. I love all the books I have read by Mark Rashid and reading this one has helped me understand my two young horses better and more deeply. His writing about 'softness' is outstanding and so helpful to me. The book is full of his real-life experiences with horses and their owners, together with memories of when he was learning about horses as a boy. Clearly and sensitively written with stories relevant to explaining his approach to being with horses. Thank you Mark from me and my small herd.

Vivien Dostine: I think I read this book pretty much from cover to cover before I had even cleared away the packaging.

As always Mark writes in an easily accessible style, anecdotes from his clinics and his work with 'the old man' provide insights into his style of teaching, and the way of the horse. I find myself thinking deeply about the way that I train, and interact with horses when reading his books. They aren't instructional in a traditional sense, and yet there is something that makes a connection. You learn by listening to the writer; in a way that is perhaps closest to the way that we naturally learn through experience and although you may not leave with a specific set of exercises to perform, or a new gadget to try I definitely believe that you will learn.

If you're a fan of Mark already, then this will be familiar and yet because they are new stories and experiences they will bring you some new insights. If you are new to Mark, then be prepared to read and let your own mind process the stories. As I say this is not an instructional book in the normal sense of the word; you won't get training techniques 101, or 101 exercises to stop your horse bucking, but you can learn a...
