Unrealistic Title, But a Valuable Beginner's Manual

Reality Check: each of the skills profiled in this handy little manual takes practice and patience over the long-term to perfect. However, as a beginner/intermediate student returning to riding after a lengthy absence, I find myself referring to the excellent photo presentation format of this book quite frequently to reinforce what I'm learning in my weekly lessons. It is surprising just how much of the basics are actually covered. I would not recommend this for the intermediate/advanced rider, but for the price it is a worthy investment especially for the beginner.
