Review

A great reference for even the serious competitor to use to get out on a trail for the weekend. -- Caryn Vesperman, President, Wisc. Dressage & Combined Training Assoc.

Since her years as a self-professed barn-rat in the 1960s, Connor has ridden Western pleasure and English pleasure, foxhunted, and shown successfully in hunt seat, eventing, and dressage. She finished fourth in the Region 2 training level dressage championships in Lexington, KY in 1997, seventh at first level in Chicago in 1998, and sold her horse shortly thereafter to stay home and raise her family. She writes for several publications, including the Chronicle of the Horse. These days, with three children under the age of eight, Connor rides mostly for pleasure.

2.0 out of 5 stars Minimal on trails.

I wanted more on trails! Other barns are irrelevant unless I am living there. Info on what trails are like and maps was what I expected and didn't get.

5.0 out of 5 stars Everything you want to know
Reviewed in the United States on September 14, 2004
This book is fantastic! The author has been incredibly thorough in her research of the best horse stables, barns and trails around Wisconsin. It's well organized so information can easily be found depending on what part of the state you live in or are visiting. I especially liked all the added details such as which barns or trails were good for kids. She has even included therapeutic riding stables and what they offer. I haven't seen anything like this guide available anywhere. Even the pictures are great and add a lot to the book. I recommend this book to anyone interested in riding or getting their kids involved in riding.

5.0 out of 5 stars Out of the armchair and into the saddle!
Reviewed in the United States on October 13, 2004
I've lived in Wisconsin for 7 years and had no idea how many equestrian pleasures were all around me. Well written, with great pictures, this book is a real inspiration to get out of the armchair and into the saddle. I selected a trail ride for a troop of Girl Scouts based on the book's description and found it right on the mark - the stable was exactly as described and the girls had a great time. I highly recommend it for anyone who likes horses and can imagine themselves seeing more of the State on horseback.
