Not Quite a Horsewoman" has, since its publication in 1982,
delighted thousands of aspirant riders and horse owners. Now in its
third edition and embellished with even more delightful cartoons by
Anne Pilgrim, it will entertain a new generation of horse lovers as
Caroline Akrill reveals the frequent disasters and the occasional
triumphs of her long association with a string of equine
characters. Ambitions and aspirations fall by the wayside as she
tells the story of her leading rein pony, the saga of her show hack
and the tale of her season as a hunting columnist. She remembers
her first stable yard where she was exploited by her own working
pupils, her brief career as a dealer operating from a small village
pub, and the agonies of professionally producing show ponies as
their owners waited at the ring-side with their livery cheques
still unwritten. Engagingly witty, endearingly frank, sometimes
surprising, but always amusing, Caroline Akrill regards the horse
from the safety of the stable door and scrutinises him with candour
and affection.
