The cover shows him doing the levade--had the opportunity to see him do it in person, about 10' away from me--the thrill was indescribable. The horse pictured on the cover, St. Graal [Eli] was the horse I saw him share his absolute mastery and joy of riding with [alas, Eli died a few months later]. He is considered one of the modern masters of dressage, included in Martin Diggle's series 'Masters of Dressage....'
