Summary: A Gift
Comment: I bought this book not knowing what it was about. I had read Mark Rashid's two other books, and his name on this one was all I needed to make the purchase. I have already been educated and inspired from 'Considering the Horse' and 'Horses Never Lie' more than I have been from all other horse books put together. I knew 'A Good Horse Is Never a Bad Color' would be as good. I was not disappointed.
Unlike the other two, though, this book covers a slightly different subject. While the others mainly discuss training attitude and problem solving, this one focuses on making good horses. It discusses practical issues such as choosing a good horse, imprinting newborns, early training, solving problems that might occur along the way, and even changing a bad horse into a good horse. Of course, Mark never tells you, "if you have a problem with that, do this to solve it." Instead, he writes in story format, recalling his experiences as they happened. This charming style guarantees the book unputdownable. Even if you are not into horses, you could read this book as an autobiography.
In the last chapter, Mark concludes that it was 'the old man' who had passed on this gift to him. He hopes that through this book, he had been able to pass on the gift to the reader. But really, to learn the gift and use it, you must read all his books. They complete each other and deliver his message to the world: a horse will give his all to the person who talks to him in a language he understands. This book costs only $[money], but I would've bought it even it the price was $500. If you have to read only one book in your life about horses, make it one of Mark Rashid's.

Summary: The Most Enjoyable Book on Training You Will Ever Read!
Comment: Mark shares his experiences with horses in a short story format. He explains different situations that he has encountered and how he approached them - not always succesfully, but what he learned and how he could handle them better in the future. He shares what he learned from "the old man" and how he has used the knowledge in his dealings with horses. Mark does clinics around the country where he shares more of his stories and his knowledge about working together with your horse to create a better partnership. Check out his website for clinic dates and comments from participants - look it up! Rumor has it he's working on a third book!

Summary: Equestrians must read this book!
Comment: This book is very interesting and will keep you attention. My favorite part is when Mark talks and tells about how good horses can be no matter what color or breed they are. This book will have an impact on you and horses. You will have a new way to look at them and understand them. If your on the search for a better way to work with horses then this book is defintly for you! I don't think you will be disapointed.
