Ex Household Cavalry for Queen Elizabeth II and former student of Monty Roberts, brings you the secrets of body language, horse psychology training and lots of practical advice ensuring the best start to your horse's career.

The title of the book is very accurate as Richard guides you through every moment of the young horse and explains in detail exactly how to handle your horse. from imprint training through to backing, and starting out correctly. Lots of Q & A are fielded here too e.g. should you let others ride your youngster to accustom the horse to other riders? How do you sort through the problem loader issues? What is nursery school for the horse and what lessons should you teach at what age? How do you handle teenage rebellion? There is a myriad of photographs that show the ups and downs of the training process with great honesty.

TheHorseStudio.com review: I have bred warmblood horses for over 15 years and had my share of bumps and bruises both literally and figuratively over the years. I loved this book! Right to the point and covers all the essentials. Very practical. Very easy to follow. Highly recommend for anyone starting a horse even if experienced .

Richard Maxwell spent ten years in the Household Cavalry before training with Monty Roberts to further develop his horse training skills. He is highly respected for his work with problem horses and works to restore trust and mutual respect. Co author Johanna Sharples is a writer for Britain's best selling horse magazine Your Horse. She has worked with Max with her own problem horses and knows his work well.
