Back in January, I "evented" (I gleaned that term from Ann's book--and likely I am shamelessly misusing it) For the Love of the Horse, Volume III by Ann Jamieson.
I am now finally reading it. But what better time than awaiting the last event of the Triple Crown (and, yes, my money is on California Chrome).
Of course, when I came to the Chapter entitled "Pasha," you could have pushed me over with a feather.
As soon as I finish, I will write a review of this wonderful book, easy to read even for someone without a clue about horses. Most expressions are either explained or easily guessed at - except when Ann talks about a horse having his "teeth floated." I sure hope that'll never happen to me! I shudder imagining having a tall glass next to my bed; you get the picture!
Anyway,
celebrate that majestic animal with me today.
I just realized that Ann's has made another of her books FREE on Amazon.
For the Love of the Horse, Volume II:

It sounds like an interesting read!
ReplyDeleteI was mad about horses as a pre-teen, and I'd have jumped at these books! Wishing Ann much success! :)
ReplyDeleteIt's always nice finding a good book to cuddle up with :)
