 Perfect for horse owners and non-horse owners alike September 6, 2004

This magazine is absolutely wonderful! I'm a thirten year old amateur rider, and I find these articles very interesting and informative without loading you down with complex terms. I don't use a lot of the articles yet, like training articles, but the information I gain is very valuable. Here's a layout:
Feature Articles: There are always seven to ten feature articles, which are long, informative articles on training, tips on looking for a barn, using good fencing, or maybe just a sport that it informs you about.
Columns
Equipage: This column, by Moira C. Harris, talks about observations of the equine world or advice she's acquired over the years.
Life with Horses: This is a humorous column by Cindy Hale that looks at the funny side of all things equine.
Back in Z Saddle: By Soraya O' Sullivan, this column shows the equine life of Soraya, going day by day.
Vet Files: The latest medical news
Western Roundup: News for the Western rider
English Arena: News for the English rider
This Month On: Stuff on www.horseillustrated.com
Departments
Mail Pouch: Readers write to Horse Illustrated
Horseman's World: The latest news
Illustrated Shopper, Ad Index, Breeder Directory, Classified Advertising, Gallery, Gallery Advertising: Stuff for you to look at
Breed Profile: Each month features a breed and its history, plus a tear-out poster.
There's even more, too. This is a great magazine. The only thing I don't like about it is all the advertisements, but the great articles make it ok. Oh yeah, and the photographs are great too. Enjoy this magazine!!

This is a great magazine for younger and older horse lovers! I received it for years when I was younger. I just recently renewed, and have been really happy with my first two issues. The posters are now perforated, and come out really easily without ruining the article they're a part of.
I also have to say that it's really nice to have a horse magazine that covers both Western and English styles of riding. I appreciate that, and I think it's a great way to promote to people that just ride one way, and not the other.
This magazine is definitely highly recommended!

My niece and I love this magazine. I love it it for the articles, and since she is 8 years old, she lives the posters inside. Whether you ride English, Western or even with an Australian saddle, every horse person will enjoy the magazine. I also get Dog Fancy, and Horse Illustarted is set up the same way: Long informative articles, as well as short newsworthy 2 papragraph stories. I enjoy reading about the different breeds that I do not know much about. Since I ride a quarter horse, it is interesting to learn about other breeds.

Horse Illustrated really is "the magazine for responsible horse owners". It has everything you need, including vet, training, riding (english & western), barn care, and every day horse care. They have useful information with a touch of humor. I always learn something new to try around the barn, wether its organizing your tack room or the "how-to's" of the horse world. I LOVE THIS MAGAZINE!!!

Absolutely brilliant! This magazine has kept me a loyal subscriber for nearly three years now. Although I am an artist, and half the reason I subscribe is for the glorious photographs (much of which is photograohed by Bob Langrish) I also love the articles. Cindy Hale's "Life With Horses" daily columns are always filled with humor about her horses daily lives, "Vet Files" is very informative about horse health, "Western Roundup" and "English Arena" (both updated) are in-depth with English and Western riding tips of all desciplines, and several more columns and articles I have found enjoyable and helpful. This magazine should go to anyone who owns horses or not! I would recomend Young Rider too. It's very good and I loved it especially the daily contests!
