Price: $8.00

Publisher: CO, The Western Horseman, Inc.: 1989

Seller Id: MK46630

ISBN: 0911647163

Binding: Soft cover

Condition: Very Good

Possible first edition, no other printings listed besides 1989. Moderate wear/rubbing to tips of cover, besides a former owner's note about Jack Brainard pinning someone in a show, the pages are crisp and unmarked. 135 pp text. After reading the first chapter, I agree with Jack's halter breaking technique whole-heartedly. Recommended, common-sense guide to training as well as a companion reference to specialized training books on such events as cutting, reining, roping, pleasure - whatever you plan to do with a horse.
