    Tom Dorrance ist kein Schriftsteller, daher gleicht das Buch mehr einer spontanen freien Erzählung. Dennoch ist das Buch extrem lehrreich und absolut empfehlenswert.

    Dieses Buch gibt sehr schöne Einblicke in die Denkweise von Tom Dorrance und zeigt auch wieder, wie fein Pferde sind und wie gut man aufpassen muss, um sie zu erkennen. Sehr eindrucksvoll.

    I wouldn't dare to call myself a horsemen for now... but I guess I've got the basics. And this book is brilliant for someone who does, but I can imagine someone who doesn't really have the mindset of someone who sees horses the way Tom Dorrance or Ray Hunt does, he won't understand anything. I love the way Mr. Dorrance struggles to find the words for what he means to say. Those words won't be understood until you feel them in a real life situation I guess. Some I'm also still waiting for to understand. I guess it's a fifty-fifty chance of people working with horses liking this book or not. I love it, and will suggest it to anyone who wants to read some good horse-literature.

    This book is a disappointment. Tom Dorrance keeps searching for words to explain what seems to be his metaphysical relationship with horses and comes up short. Then, students who have studied with Tom give their version of the Dorrance philosophy and training methods. Midway through, I laid the book down in exasperation. I wanted to help Tom with words as his struggle is so apparent. A truly unique pioneer, a humble man but not a good book.

    Dorrance is a skilled horseman and "whisperer" whose skill at understanding the horses language is certainly a gift. However, the book came across as disjointed and poorly organized, in places very redundant. I was also disappointed by the tendency to attribute results to almost magical abilities: not much "meat" on how to put the training techniques into use.

    True Unity

    "Natural Horsemanship," whatever that term means, begins here. To me, the term means being able to see the world through your horse's eyes. It means understanding equine psychology. It means that you understand and work with the horse's natural instincts. It means being as gentle as possible but as firm as necessary in order to communicate with your horse. The emphasis is on communication - a willing communication - between horse and rider. One of the key concepts of this book is to let it happen rather than trying to make it happen. This means to cause the wrong thing to be difficult and allow the right thing to be easy. It means approaching your horses with empathy, kindness and respect. Practitioners of "Natural Horsemanship" do not use force, fear or intimidation. If this overall philosophy sounds worthwhile, then you owe it to yourself to go right to the original source of the revolution in horsemanship set in motion by Tom Dorrance, Bill Dorrance and Ray Hunt. These are the founding fathers of this movement.

    * (That said, I personally believe that there are other practitioners of NH that actually do a better job of explaining the concepts of these giants to the average rider. Among the new breed of NH practitioners, I personally like the approach and teaching methods of Pat Parelli -- who learned directly from Tom Dorrance and Ray Hunt, Clinton Anderson, Ken McNabb, Denis Reis and Craig Cameron. And, of course, Buck Brannaman. He has cowboyed and ridden countless miles on the open range with the Dorrance brothers and Ray Hunt. He is perhaps their best student and the one who most closely tries to follow their approach to horsemanship. He is a superb horseman, the best roper in the world and a fine human being as well.)

    If you aspire to excellence in your horsemanship, this is a must read. If you are looking for a "how-to" book, this is not it. This is a deeply philosophical book in that it provides a broad, conceptual framework in which to think about and interact with your horse. You cannot speed read or skim this book. In order to "get" Mr. Dorrance's message, you must read it slowly and meditate upon what he is saying.

    In this book, he is attempting to do the almost impossible. He is trying to explain the importance of FEEL, TIMING and BALANCE. He can tell you what to strive for, but he can't feel the horse or experience timing and balance for you. You will only know these things when you actually experience them for yourself. The value in this book is in bringing these critical concepts to a conscious level.

    In order to get the full benefit of this book, I would highly recommend that you also purchase the two CD set from Margaret Dorrance and listen to them over and over. You can purchase these at [...].

    Happy Trails~

    This book was in excellent condition and one that I will read and reread many times. Lots of great information about creating that unity with our equine friend from the horses attorney.
