New Hardcover

A fascinating volume about the history of the California Stock Horse and the Hackamore style of horse training. The centuries-old Spanish tradition is rapidly becoming a lost art. Here Ingersoll includes practical horse training tips, intricate drawings and diagrams, and photographs of significant riders and their Hackamore horses.
Bobby Ingersoll's skills as a horse trainer and David Stoecklein's gifts as a photographer make for a fascinating book, complete with a historical look at hackamore training, practical tips for horsemen, sketches, and beautiful images. Following the Spanish tradition, Bobby's philosophy deals with the heart and the mind of the horse. He believes that only through feel, can one truly communicate to a horse and that's what makes someone a good horseman or what many call a 'Horse Whisperer.'"
