The Language of the Aids describes all the natural aids, how to apply them and how each affects a horse.  It also contains descriptions of the walk, trot/jog, canter/lope, gallop and the grazing gait, as well as the different movements horses can perform at elementary, intermediate and advanced levels.  School figures are both described and illustrated, and drills are introduced.

If you're not interested in horses, you probably know someone who is.  Buy it for yourself, buy it as a gift.
