Book Reviews of 101 Longeing and Long Lining Exercises English and Western: A Ringside Guide
Book Review: Just what I needed!
Summary: 5 Stars
I've ridden for decades--trails, low-level jumping & dressage, obstacles--but never started a horse from scratch. Now having two 22mo old geldings that I took on as orphan foals at 2wks of age, I've been doing tons of in-hand work on basics, obstacles, little trails, etc. This pair of books ("101..." plus the illustrated hardback text that is paired with it)is perfect for me/us right now. Because I've never done much longeing, and nothing with side-reins, surcingles, cavessons, long lines, etc, the detailed instruction on minutiae of how to hold or fasten things, and alternative types of tack, was particularly useful. The graded exercises started with 10-12 things we had gotten quite proficient at in-hand (eg, head down, whoa & stand, turn on forehand, sidepass), but quickly moved on to things I've never done, and my "boys" certainly haven't. I really appreciate Hill's focus on safety & on potential problems & their prevention & solutions--the kinds of things you get from a good trainer with lots of experience, so you can potentially avoid problems.
Summary of 101 Longeing and Long Lining Exercises English and Western: A Ringside Guide
If you are like most people, you know what you want your horse to do and how you want him to behave. You want your training experiences to be safe and enjoyable for both you and your horse. But maybe you aren't sure what to do and when. In 101 Longeing and Long Lining Exercises you'll find complete ground training lesson plans from square 1 to square 101. Cherry Hill starts with basic in-hand and free longeing lessons, then takes you through the addition of a longe line, cavesson, bridle, surcingle, side reins, saddle, and long lines. You'll learn a wide variety of ground training exercises suitable for both English and Western horses. In-hand section:* Fancy footwork

Each of the exercises is laid out with a diagram, step-by-step instructions, and an explanation of its benefits. The exercises progress from the basic skills to more advanced ones, such as counter-canter and flying changes of lead. This book and its companion volume, Longeing and Long Lining the English and Western Horse: A Total Program, give you a solid foundation for helping your horse work in productive form.
