A Rider's Atlas

If you can read all the way through the Dingos Breakfast Club in a day, well, you have too much time on your hands.

Dr. Nancy Nicholson, associate professor at Miami University (Ohio), created an array of materials on everything from Austalian vacations to the Sowbug Outreach Society. But the gem of her work is the Biomechanical Riding & Dressage:A Rider's Atlas. Professor Nicholson provides the material for an indepth study of horse movement under saddle. Don't try to take it all in during one sitting... just bookmark it and keep coming back for more. Your time will be well spent.

    The Hinny Whisperer approves of Dr. Nancy Nicholson for:
  • not being afraid to be show her sense of humor,
  • the countless hours it must have taken to produce all the pages, videos, and diagrams on her wonderful website;
  • her evident appreciation of the horse as a magnificent being.
