Once again Lee McLean shares her insights of training, riding, and living well. In Love and Rules Lee shares her journal entries amassed over close to a half century. Great stories of horses’ progress from green broke to well prepared to face the challenges of working with a rider. Lee includes a few recipes for horse and people treats as well. Always positive, poignant, and often with humor, Lee helps us riders of all ages keep moving along.

Though primarily written for horse people, certainly an interesting read for non horse or those who dream of horses.

Inspirational, touching, and full of great insight. Even if you don't understand horses you will understand the person. You will also see yourself.

I so enjoyed this collection of stories and musings. I always feel inspired to do better with my horses, and to take a moment and just enjoy the life I have, when I read Lee's writings.
