Horse Anatomy for Performance Paperback – January 4, 2012

Gillian Higgins IS THE BEST !! I want to learn more and she makes it easy to do so! Thank You!

This is a good book for artists s well as horsemen. The drawing are somewhat crude and need to actually follow the form of the horse. All the books I find are somewhat off as well. But If you trace the shapes on your own and find the bones it might be easier to learn them.

Love this book, it is a great read and it will help you understand how your horse internally functions. Horses are such amazing and complex animals and this book really is educational and lays it all out in a logical and illustrative manner. I consider it more of a book you study, if you are interested in learning the intricacies and proper terminology for the internal systems. It will definitely help you to understand why your horses responds in certain ways and thereby will make you a better horse parent! I think anyone who rides should buy this book!

LOVE this book!! Love all of GIllian's books & videos! The artistry is amazing but the detail allows you to see just how everything is interconnected. The videos are truly awesome but the books allow you to really examine how everything works together. If you are interested in how to strengthen a particular part there is great information here!

I've taught Human Anatomy & Physiology for years, and this is the 1st year I'm teaching a comparative anatomy class. I bought this one for reference, but am so very impressed that I'm recommending it to all my students. It's FILLED with photos and amazing depictions of how our (/a horse's) anatomy moves as we (s/he) moves. Wonderful.

The book was previously opened. there were no markings in it.

The best book on horse anatomy I have ever seen .I would recommend this book not only as a teaching aid to all horse people but also as a constant reminder to any one who tacks up a horse as to exactly what is under that saddle and bridle .

This book has great illustrations. I am using it along with my text books for study and it helps put the dry textbooks in a visual format that allows me to absorb and understand the information more easily. I think it would be a fun read for any interested horse owner.
