How to train and handle the young horse

Author Richard Maxwell has trained with Monty Roberts and shares that training with you in his new book, From Birth to Backing. He divides the training of the young horse into ten stages - The Basics of Body Language; Early Learning (0-6 weeks); Nursery School (6 weeks to 6 months); Teenage Rebellions (6-18 months); etc. Maxwell gives you tips on foal handling, coping with rebellions, temper tantrums, coltish behavior and more. Sequence photographs show how the handler should work with the horse, what reactions to expect and how to sort out the problems as they occur.
