Keeping horses healthy and happy is all about establishing good routines and following the natural cycles of the animals and the land. Nobody knows this better than Cherry Hill: professional horsekeeper, lifelong horse lover, and author of more than 30 books on horses. Her routines--daily, monthly, and seasonally--are the framework for Cherry Hill's Horsekeeping Almanac, a goldmine of horsekeeping knowledge for all horse enthusiasts.

Month by month, Hill touches on every issue likely to affect horses, horse farms, and the people who care for them both. Each month opens with a brief description of what's happening on the farm, followed by personal notes on specific, month-appropriate topics. Also included are recurring reminders, to-do lists, reference charts, climate notes, equine wit and wisdom, a word of the month, and an "Ask Cherry" section featuring seasonally relevant excerpts from her newsletter.

Cherry Hill is an award-winning author of more than 30 horse books and DVDs and more than 1000 articles for various publications. She lives in Colorado with her husband and their horses.
