Reviews

This book is a vital addition to any horse lovers’ library. Its objective is to use The Five Domains of Animal Welfare (formerly known as The Five Freedoms) to give specific equine information as reliable guidance for owners; maybe principally to novice and slightly above, but hopefully for rather more experienced owners as well. Following truly horse-friendly ways of managing and riding horses must improve our relationship with them and that is what the book aims to do. Susan’s writing ability, and love for the horse, is obvious and needs no validation. Anne Wilson, author of 'Top Horse Training Methods Explored', 'Riding Revelations - Classical Training from the Beginning' and editor of 'Tracking-up' magazine

Author Information

Susan McBane is known worldwide as a long-established equestrian author, this book being her fiftieth. She has contributed to and revised several other books for publishers and written hundreds of magazine articles. She has an HNC in Equine Science and Management, is a Classical Riding Club listed trainer and Gold Award holder, and an Associate Member of the International Society for Equitation Science. In 1978, with Dr. Moyra Williams, herself an author, clinical psychologist, sport-horse breeder and intrepid horsewoman, Susan founded the Equine Behaviour Study Circle, later re-named the Equine Behaviour Forum, editing its members’ journal for 30 years. Susan has edited two commercial magazines, self-publishing one of them, EQUI, and is currently Publishing Editor of Tracking-up, a voluntary, non-profit quarterly which she produces with equestrian teacher and author, Anne Wilson (email: annewilsondressage@hotmail.co.uk). Susan taught classical riding for 20 years, for much of that time combining it with Equitation Science, the blending of the two being what she considers to be an ideal system of equitation. She has also acted as an expert witness, consultant, peer reviewer, judge and speaker on equestrian topics.
