Customer Reviews

This book is pure Mark Rashid. If you love horses and riding, you'll keep and read this book for the rest of your life.
For any of us who know Mark Rashid, this book is pure Mark Rashid. As I read the book I could hear his voice speaking the words. This is a book you'll want to share with your friends and relatives, whether they are horsepeople or not. This is a very thoughtful and thought provoking book about horses and life. It is about: awareness, learning, teaching, honesty, integrity and much more. It is about principles more than techniques. It is about taking ownership of and responsibility for our lives and relationships with horses and humans.

This book is profound and simple all at once. It doesn't take long to read, but will be with you (and your horse if you have one) for life. It is about "the price of the ticket".

A Whole Lot More Than Horsemanship
Horsemanship Through Life is awesome. Mark really bares his soul and has written a very personal book. The thoughts and journeys shared here will not only make one a better horseman, but a better person all the way around. For those of you that have not met Mark in person, you may think this book is a bunch of hooey...but it truly is the essence of the man, Mark Rashid. Mark is a man of integrity whose horsemanship ALWAYS has what is best for the horse at heart. Mark is a great teacher and truly a master of horsemanship and an ever evolving student of life. This book touched me deeply. Attending Mark's clinics and reading his books has had a profound effect on both my horsemanship and my life. I am proud to call him my horsemanship sensei.

GOOD LINK BETWEEN MARTIAL ARTS AND HORSEMANSHIP
I was a bit leary when I found out that Mark was going to talk about his experiences with a martial arts program as I don't care for the spiritual aspects of many of them. I was very pleased when I read the book and found how he applied the practical aspects of Aikido to horsemanship. Mark is a good author and a very good horseman. It was a pleasure to read how he continues to learn and grow. That's a good incentive for this 60-year old horseman.
