In Considering Horsemanship one of America's most prolific and devoted equestrian writers, Tom Moates, returns taking an all new approach to thinking about horsemanship. The subtitle sums it up: A Book of Ideas Inspired By Two Decades of Harry Whitney Horsemanship Clinic Journals. Moates revisits the tattered pages of a pile of clinic notebooks filled with observations and insights scribbled down at round pens, arenas, bunkhouses, and barns across America and over the years-then each chapter kicks off with a thought provoking quote from his mentor plucked from those pages. These sage remarks become launching points for in depth discussions on aspects of horsemanship with unique insights, inspirations, and often comical queries in Moates's celebrated style.
