I find it very interesting, that from what I've seen (which doesn't include the book) that most of the things Hough discusses are covered in either the MSF Beginning or Experienced Rider Courses. Having the book would be like having an instructor's manual. Can't hurt, that's for sure. Regards, Henry S.
