Horsemasters

Description:

Based on the course at a real-life former riding school in England, this is the story of a group of young people who have come to England to take the British Horse Society Horsemasters course, which will qualify them to become assistant instructors of horsemanship. They study horse health and care, dressage, and combined training, and learn to work as a team. The Disney movie "The Horsemasters" (1961), starring Annette Funicello and Tommy Kirk, is based on this book.
