The pocket guide to equine knots : a step-by-step guide to the most important knots for horse and rider
(Book)

As anyone who has ever stepped foot into a barn knows well, riding, handling, and caring for a horse is no easy task. Learning how to correctly tie knots can make things easier, but with more than four thousand different types of knots out there, the choices can be overwhelming. Dan Aadland is here to help. You'll learn to recognize a "good" knot - a knot that holds but can be untied after pressure. You'll look into the world of hitches and splices. And you'll learn step-by-step how to properly tie dozens of different knots, including square, bow, honda, and crown knots; running bowlines and picket lines; clove and taut-line hitches; and many more.--COVER
