Full of the best of British humor and some very interesting facts, this book is well written and well worth the read. Many expressions of the English language go back to coaching past, Hobson's Choice, Night Mares, and a myriad of other terms all revealed here.

The wealth of experience from the three authors brings a super all around perspective to driving - whether it's horses or donkeys or even goats. Competitive and non-competitive driving are included- from choosing the driving animal to his care, the groom, harness fit, training to harness, tandems, pairs, singles, team, show ring- avoiding accidents and so much more. All neatly captured by Joy Claxton and Vivian and Richard Ellis.

In addition to being a Driving Scociety Judge vivian brings a breadth of experience with donkey driving. Richard has farmed with Irish Cobs for over 30 years and is also a Light Harness Horse Instructor and Verifier. Joy has been a professional groom and has trained many disabled people to drive.

A good book and a reasonable price. Published by UK house J A Allen.
