THE FABULOUS FLOATING HORSES: Comprehensive Guide to 30 SOFT-GAITED Breeds
by Barbara Weatherwax

Barbara Weatherwax knows her subject like no one else. She earned her expertise the best way— with a lifetime of study and enjoyment of soft-gaited horses. Her enthusiasm is contagious to riders, breeders, trainers and readers. Her monthly column in Horse Tales is packed with practical advice about the soft-gaited breeds. Her online column for the Kentucky Mountain Saddle Horse Association, Great Gaits, brings her insight and instructive information to a worldwide audience.

The Fabulous Floating Horses is a tour de force: a wonderful read and a full-scale treatment of her subject. In it she charts the history of 30 soft-gaited breeds with hundreds of photographs and diagrams explaining the step patterns of the horse. It is a brilliant and abundant achievement—a fountainhead of knowledge that until now has never been available to horse owners and horse lovers.

The author has examined horses throughout the United States and holds multiple credentials to inspect for the Kentucky Mountain Saddle Horse Association, the Spotted Saddle Horse Breeder and Exhibitor Association, the Tiger Horse Association, the American Spotted Horse Association, and the Kentucky Natural Gaited Horse Association. She has also judged Paso Finos, Peruvian Pasos, Spotted Saddle Horses, Kentucky Mountain Horses, Tennessee Walkers and Icelandics in non-pointed, all-breed gaited shows. Barbara is the Nevada representative for the Mountain Pleasure Horse Association.
