Summary: Dressage Technical Manual
Comment: This is an absolute must-read for anyone who rides dressage horses. It's like a basic textbook. For the earthbound, or for the rent-a-pony crowd, it will be a crashing bore. Podhajsky is not an easy-reading "how to ride" book. This is a very technical manual for serious riders, and it is engrossing. Podhajsky's attitude toward positive reinforcement as a training aid is right on, as is his discussion of how the training of horses was often misdirected in the past. My only complaint is that I wish there were more illustrations.

Rating: 5
Summary: Nothing beats the SRS when it comes to dressage theory
Comment: Podhajsky does a marvelous job of detailing the Classical dressage theory of the Spanish Riding School. He starts with a brief history of dressage & ends with airs above the ground. This is a must-read for any serious student of dressage. This book will help the reader understand the mechanics & methodology behind this extaordinarily successful system.

Rating: 1
Summary: disappointed
Comment: It wasn't clear that this was a book on "classical" horsemanship printed in 1965. The 1/2 dozen illustrations were poorly drawn/designed. I was under the impression from the other reviews that this would be a good book for beginners learning to ride horses. This book was translated into British English from Germany or Russia. A native American Indian could teach horsemanship much better than this guy.
