Using the Olympic equestrian sports of show jumping, combined training, and dressage as a narrative backdrop, Menino traces the long-standing history of the fellowship between humans and horses. She focuses on three leading American riders and their horses in this fascinating account of world-class riding. With exacting insight into the interaction between people and horses, Forward Motion examines what it takes to succeed in this joint athletic venture, what makes horses tick, and what draws people to a shared life with these enigmatic animals.
Thanks to the Oldest TBR Read and Release Challenge 2018, this was the next book on my bookshelf to read, based on when it was registered. I just couldn't get into this book, so I will be moving it along soon. Perhaps if I'd picked it up 12 years ago, I would have enjoyed it more.
