    A very trustworthy and communicative seller! The price of the books he sold me was so incredible, that I couldn't believe it until I received them. Books arrived in amazing condition (better than the photos conveyed) and the price and speed of shipping was the best I think I've had on eBay -- books arrived over 20 days before they were supposed to! Will buy from this seller again if I see an item I would like.

    So far this book looks like the perfect reference for any horse owner, no matter how experienced. Haven’t had time to fully ingest, but love how topics are presented in a concise yet thorough manner which is easy to follow. Helpful pictures of many equine complaints. Good for troubleshooting, and gives you an armory from which to glean when talking with your vet. I enjoyed the chart about anthelmintics (deworming agents). Gave me a better idea of the properties of the various deworming products. I recommend this book to anyone who loves horses, and especially encourage young or novice horse owners to spend their money on valuable items like this rather than “that cool new browband”. Horse owners should be aware of the great responsibility involved with the beautiful and completely unique ...
