"Breaking and Training the Stock Horse is the first horse training book I ever read. I was given a first edition copy in 1957 by one of my mentors, a cowgirl who worked on a ranch in Elko, Nevada. Charles Williamson wrote about horsemanship and feel and encouraged readers to observe the horse and to think back in the 1950s - way before today's "Natural Horsemanship". I credit his book with having the most influence on my training philosophies and style. I will try to keep copies of this hard-to-find (out of print) classic available on my website so you too can benefit from Williamson's good advice."
