 Happy reader May 15, 2008
I thought this was a well done job of advising the reader on how to design a barn that fits the horse-owning public's wide variety of needs for horse shelter. There were many different examples of horse barn designs along with the basic design decisions that need to be made for a successful design process by the reader. I was able to read the book and learn enough to start the design and pricing process with a local builder. I was able to come up with a fundamental design that suited my particular needs and I have the author to thank for this educational book that made this possible. If you are thinking about having a barn built I would highly recommend this book.
 Jackpot March 28, 2008
I am planning in buiding new stables for my horses when I started searching for books I got a little confused with all the available titles, but I definately did the right thing in choosing this one. Concise, adresses all the main problems conected to housing horses, and actually offers stright forward solutions (design and everything).
Priced just right this is a really helpfull book for horse owners new and old. For a general overview a woderful book you can always refer to.
(I have to add that this is the first time I took the time to write a review, that should also mean something)
 An Interesting Read January 22, 2008
I purchased this book thinking it would help me to get some new ideas for when I rebuild our old horse barn. It didn't really satisfy that need because it didn't really address the different types of construction or provide many detailed building plans to view for techniques, etc. What I did find useful was much of the other horse management information in general around the farm - pointers on bedding, care, feeding, etc. I'm the type that can look at a set of building plans and glean useful construction ideas from them and think of new ways to adapt them to my needs. I guess I was expecting too much from this book.

At age 63, I am FINALLY the proud owner of a horse--now looking for land with room for a house, pasture, and a barn. This book is full of all sizes and shapes of barns/shelters and gives great advice as to location on the land, etc. I've already chosen two plans that I really like; now, to find that land!
What a geat tool! August 24, 2006
This book has everything needed to ensure nothing is left out during the building process. There were ideas in here I had not thought of. An excellant tool for anyone getting ready to build, add on or refurbish a barn.
