The Galway Connemara | The Autobiography of an Irish Connemara Pony. If horses could talk...

I absolutely loved this book and how it is from the horses point of view. I highly recommend this book!

This book accomplishes what Black Beauty once did, showing the life of a horse through different owners, good bad and in between, and using what they do right and wrong to teach what horses need.

A lovely book. I honestly couldn’t put it down and it made me tear up a few times. It’s a real modern day Black Beauty that tells the tale of a Connemara who is passed on from owner to owner, with some being more kind and knowledgeable than others. I’d like to think I treat my horses very well, but it encouraged me to think about things from the horse’s perspective even more.

This book took me back to reading Black Beauty as a child. The story of Lir, told by the horse himself. It arrived yesterday and I really couldn't put it down. As you might expect, this book takes you through the highs and lows of Lir's life, which makes it a great read. It also challenges some conventional equestrian wisdom. I'd recommend it to anyone who loves horses.

I really enjoyed this book. Very well written and a book any horse person would enjoy and be able to relate to.
