Practical Eventing by Sally O'Connor 'A vast literature is already in existance on all facets of riding but it is still hard to find books that relate to the backyard horse, or the difficult horse ridden by amateurs who have no readily available instructor. The highly trained horse in competition had to start somewhere and you can be sure that the way to the top was filled with setbacks and frustrations. I hope this book offers some practical advice to those who would like to get involved'. Contents: Part 1 Preparing for the First Competion= the horse; lungeing and flat work; beginning jumping work; conditioning; more jumping and cross country work; preparing for competition; first competition; review of first year's work.

Part 3 Preliminary and the 3DE=preliminary requirements; steeplechase; conditioning for a preliminary 3DE; competing in your first 3DE. HB, B&W Photos + Illustrated, 166 pages.
