Industry Reviews

"The author has written the most readable book on equine nutrition I've ever seen [and] has managed to make a difficult and cumbersome subject very manageable. ... This is the most useful, most readable nutrition book I have ever used. ... Students using this book will retain more basic nutrition knowledge than those sutdying more ration-based books."
