Book Description
Linda Allen has spent more than 35 years in the equestrian industry, training, riding, jumping, competing, and designing courses. In 101 JUMPING EXERCISES FOR HORSE & RIDER, she provides a logical and consistent series of exercises presented in a fun and appealing way, with clear arena maps and straightforward instructions. For each exercise, Linda covers set-up; how to ride the exercise; steps to make the exercise more difficult; what every successful rider should keep in mind while working; when to move on to the next step; and the benefits of the exercise.
This must-have workbook, a sequel to the successful "read-and-ride" 101 Arena Exercises and 101 Horsemanship & Equitation Patterns, stresses safety, skill building, and success for riders of all ages and levels of experience, whether their interest is in show jumping, eventing, hunters, equitation, or just plain having fun with their horses. Designed in the same user-friendly format as the previous books, with a lay-flat comb binding, the book can be hung on the barn wall or draped over a jump standard in the training area so the reader/rider can refer to it from the saddle.

great jumping ideas.......2007-08-07
This book has so much info on different exercises and each exercises has little hits about when to use this exercise and what to watch out for while riding it.
Evolution of jumping skills........2007-05-13
This book breaks the demands or jumping down into a logical progression of skills until it takes the insecure beginning rider into a confident partner to the jumping horse. If these lessons are followed correctly, it can also take a training level horse into a skilled show jumper. This book is a must for anyone interested int he discipline of jumping.
Great Jumping book for beginners .......2006-08-19
This book creates a great foundation to train yourself and your horse to excell in jumping no matter what your intentions may be. I personally would recomend this book for all ages and engligh riders even the one's with no intention on jumping.
A Great Book To Keep In Your Tack Room!.......2006-01-14
I have started to do some of these exercises with my Appaloosa gelding. He is ten, but has gone western the two years he has been trained and is very ignorant of english riding skills.
I have been doing these exercises with him, and it really worked! He is now on his way to being a confident jumper. It was pretty easy, too. We set up the cavaletti and cross-rail grids, and followed the patterns described. I am now proud to say I have a hunter in training. This book is highly reccomended to everyone; whether your horse is a confident jumper, or just learning, 101 Jumping Exercises For Horse And Rider is a great source to jumping exercises!
101 Jumping Exercises for Horse & Rider .......2005-08-02
I bought the book originally to add some variety to my training sessions and to obtain ideas on different exercises. Now both my trainer and I do not jump without the book close by. The different grid exercises have added so much to our workouts! Not only has it helped our horses become more confident it has helped our equitation tremendously. I would highly recommend this book for both beginers and the more experienced rider!

A Disappointment--Look Elsewhere for the Next Generation.......2006-10-27
While the title of this volume promises much, I found that it did not deliver. This is not to say that there aren't some interesting ideas in these critical essays. However, some problems stand out:
1) Time and again the ideas of the "first" generation that are held up to criticism seem more like straw men than real (much less generous) contextual readings of these important works.
2) The lack of theology (a 'logos' about 'theos') in many of the essays. Considering religious themes within the disciplines of the social sciences does not constitute theology--at least it didn't for the 1st generation. The lack of theology here reinforces caricatures of liberation theology.
3)The audacity of the claim that this is "the" next generation. How comprehensive is the 'new generation' represented here? Is there enough geographical diversity to say that this is the new generation of Latin American liberation theology?
In sum, it is a book not without merit, but I would hate for it to be the one volume people pick up and characterize liberation theology with it. Look elsewhere.
From the cover:.......2005-09-09
From the back of the book:
This is a provocative book in which a group of prominent theologians and scholars or religion not only criticize strongly some of the core assumptions, understandings, and themes of early liberation theology, but also raise insightful possibilities to overcome the limitations, reconstruct the analytical frameworks, and refashion the power to engage in today's struggles for change of this living and evolving theological tradition.
