This is the best primer for riding that I have read. It is the only book that I have read that explains the kinesthetics of riding and explains why certain actions cause a result. There is a lot of excellent advice for improving your riding skill and improving your horse. This is the only book that I buy for people who like riding and want to learn the mechanics.
Fantastic!

This book is an excellent book, and explains collection in clear terms. Collection is so often misunderstood as simply bringing the horse's head down into position, instead of learning how to get your horse to shift his weight into his hindquarters, really push with his back end, round his back, and lift his forehand. This book is a must-read for any rider in any discipline, english or otherwise.

This book is super for anyone who truly wants to become a good rider. It has helped me numerous times to understand what my trainer was trying to tell me. A simple, logical explanation is given for the horses' reactions to my actions. I find myself referring to it regularly and understanding something new each time.
A must-read for attaining harmony with your horse.

A classic aimed at the dressage rider yet applicable to all who desire a true partnership with their horse. Museler provides clear explanations and graphic illustrations on the training of the horse and rider from the basics of balance and feel to correcting disobedience and advanced training. First published in 1937, 'Riding Logic' provides practical steps to achieving the sympathetic partnership advocated by todays natural horsemen
