Title: Just a load of...
Product review: This book really belongs in the fiction section! While the methods do work, it's mostly because they've worked for hundreds of years before Roberts came around. He just happens to be taking all of the credit for it. He admitted years ago in an article to Horse & Rider that most of the story part of his book was falsified -- he never studied wild horses as a 13-year-old, he never lived off of cheap diet drinks just so that he could afford to work with horses. It's a cute story, but it's not true! He used it simple to help his wallet. The only difference between Monty Roberts, and John Lyons, Pat Parelli, and all of the other trainers is that Roberts goes out of his way to dream up ideas to make himself more marketable. Of all of the pages in this book, the only ones that are worth the paper they're printed on would be the ones that explain the methods, and even those are not necessarily his own. Don't waste your money!
