The Horseless Rider

Here at last is a book for a long-neglected group of horse lovers: those riders who, for one reason or another, don't own their own horse and must rely on borrowed or rented mounts. Barbara Burn, a lifelong horsewoman and herself a horseless rider, draws on her own experience as well as that of equitation experts to provide information that riders -- regardless of level -- will want to know. From renting a hack by the hour, to landing a job around stables, to showing other people's horses, she uncovers all the options horseless riders can explore to get themselves into the saddle.
