Book Reviews of City Riders: A Story of Riding and Friendship
Book Review: Learn From Words and Pictures...
Summary: 5 Stars
This book isn't totally out of print yet.... You can really learn a lot about Claremont Riding Acadamy in Manhattan from this great book. No offense to anyone that horseback rides there but...the stable is not the cleanest and best taken care of and the black and white pictures in this book show that in detail. It is mainly about 3 girls (Audrey, Chloe, and Jenny) that are friends becuase of their love for horses and riding. The author writes about different horses at Claremont and shows that the 3 girls attend in New Jersey. It is a great book to read if you have already ridden at Claremont becuase many of the stable horses there are shown in the book with captions. The author also writes some basic horse care tips in this book that all horse lovers should know. Overall, this is a great book for people that have ridden at Claremont or would like to know more about it.
