The Dressage Horse/Das DressurPferd

Harry Boldt was one of the greatest competitive dressage riders in the world. Boldt passes on his experience in his book The Dressage Horse. He describes how the ideal training of a dressage horse up to the highest levels should progress. He also demonstrates which different training methods he himself has used, which methods suit which horses best, and how one can succesfully re-school incorrectly-trained dressage horses. It is a practical book for the discerning rider, authored by a man who writes in te same way as he talks; simply and understandably. Photographic sequences in slow-motion pictures at the rate of nine shots per second break break the dressage movements down into individual components that the human eye could not otherwise perceive.
