In her first non-fiction work, Joan Klengler, horse lover and author of The Delta Mystery Series, discusses the topic most often avoided, dismissed or denied by riders - fear.Fear is, in her words, like Dexter's Dark Passenger. If we cannot learn to control it, it will control us - damaging and even destroying our relationship with the horses we love.She talks openly of her own anxiety and how she came to terms with it and learned to reduce it to its proper place. Yes, fear has its place. Without it, we would be unable to properly assess risk and unwittingly place ourselves in danger.This book was written for all of the riders out there who suffer riding fears ranging from butterflies in the tummy to full blown anxiety complete with dry mouth, shaky knees, and visions of impending disaster.The good news - you can overcome your fears and begin to ride free and unburdened. This is an author who will tell you straight out that she is not a horse expert, but she is a fear expert and if she can beat it, so can you.
