From his early years at his family's Burbank, California, riding stable - teaching movie star show to ride - through his tenure as an advisor to many major equestrian organizations, Don Burt has acquired a panoramic perspective of the world of horses that others can only dream about. Horses And Other Heroes is a treasure trove of his memories, advice, and insight. In" Training, Judging, and Competition," he describes what makes a blue-ribbon winner. In "Real Hollywood Tales," he looks back at times spent with screen stars such as Robert Taylor and Ben Johnson, and famed stuntman Yakima Canutt.
