About This Item
New York, New York, U.S.A.: Lyons Pr, 1999 First edition First printing near fine copy in near fine unclipped dust jacket. Some rubbing to back of dust jacket, but in general, near new. Clean crisp interior appears unread. Good corners and binding.
A witty and enjoyable collection of essays for the horse lover and others: "I once gave Eugen Herrigel's Zen in the Art of Archery to Buster to read and he concluded that its application to horsemanship was that if you are thinking about your riding you are interfering with your horse."
Synopsis

About Sparkle Books
I search out used books on principle to highlight their value, keep them circulating and out of the landfill (and just because I am compelled to tell people to "read this"!)
