Horses Talking

Following the success of 'Healing for Horses', in this book, Margrit Coates explains how readers can learn to interact with equines on a deep level. She gives practical advice on how to tune into your horse and understand what he or she is trying to communicate to you about wellbeing. You will discover how to sense what your horse is feeling and when it is healthy or suffering. You will also learn how to exchange healing messages, soul to soul, with your horse in order to improve their health and yours, and to strengthen the bond between you. Included are many fascinating case histories of horses and those who care for them, showing how they have mutually benefited by learning to open channels of communication. Intended for every horse owner, rider and handler - and the many thousands of people around the world who work with horses including vets, complementary therapists, grooms, stable hands, trainers, instructors and breeders. This book is for anyone who loves horses.

Reviews

'Having worked with Margrit Coates, I can vouch for her healing ability. Her gift to animal healing is enormous.'

—— Nick Thompson, VetMFHom, MRCVS, Consultant for Horse, and Horse and Rider magazines

Simmering as it is with personal reflections, this handsome volume ... is bursting with a giddy passion, buoyed further by an expert's thirst for abstruse facts. The main pleasure of reading this book is Clarke's own enthusiasm, intelligence and seriousness ... a deeply interesting, revealing read

—— Book Hugger

Splendid ... compelling ... Clarke manages to give goose-flesh and a giggle while informing the reader - an enviable feat

—— Scotsman

A highly enjoyable (and disturbing work) ... I am in awe of [Clarke's] intrepidity

—— Guardian

Outstanding ... Clarke's dissection of the shocks, sadnesses and sexiness of the seance tables from the late Victorian era is brilliantly done ... The book is deeply enjoyable, hugely informative and at times distinctly unsettling

—— Shade Point

Britain has over 500-years' worth of ghost stories in the cupboard and in The Natural History of Ghosts, Roger Clarke makes them dance ... the most original and readable book exploring our ghost-rich culture to appear for years ... fascinating

—— Fortean Times

Clarke's examination of the need people have to believe remains insightful and illuminating throughout

—— Observer

An intriguing, shivers-down-the-spine book

—— The Lady

Lively and absorbing ... [Clarke] has proven himself an ideal guide to this troubled and disorderly realm

—— Literary Review

A fascinating social history ... exceptionally well written and researched

—— Starburst Magazine

Why do ghosts wear clothes? This is just one of a number of interesting questions raised by this jaunty book ... In a series of short, snappy chapters, Clarke examines the evidence for just about every ghost who ever drew, or withdrew, breath ... but A Natural History of Ghosts is also haunted by another story, lurking not very far beneath: the story of the author's childhood need to believe in ghosts, and the gradual erosion of that belief

—— Craig Brown , Daily Mail

A gripping history that traces the scientific and social aspects of ghostly sightings

—— Telegraph

Compelling ... Research into the paranormal necessarily involves a fair degree of debunking, and Clarke is careful to be sceptical. The narrative of ghost-hunting is simultaneously a history and exposure of fraud and popular delusion ... [yet] Clarke retains a boyish and ... well-informed enthusiasm for his subject

—— Independent

[A] voyage through the half-lit world of lost souls ... tales told with ghoulish relish

—— Telegraph
