Book Description
In a field beside the wild, rugged Atlantic coastline of Galway, a Connemara pony called Lir is born. In this heartwarming autobiography, Lir tells the story of his life in his own words, from his early days as a playful foal, through the many chapters of his life - from showjumping, eventing and dressage yards to riding stables and family homes all around Ireland. “The Galway Connemara” is a treasure trove of horse training knowledge and practices.

Join Lir as he navigates the ups and downs of his life, making friends, learning lessons and searching for his forever home.

Book Description
The Meaning of Horses: Biosocial Encounters examines some of the engagements or entanglements that link the lived experiences of human and non-human animals. The contributors discuss horse-human relationships in multiple contexts, times and places, highlighting variations in the meaning of horses as well as universals of ‘horsiness’. They consider how horses are unlike other animals, and cover topics such as commodification, identity, communication and performance. This collection emphasises the agency of the horse and a need to move beyond anthropocentric studies, with a theoretical approach that features naturecultures, co-being and biosocial encounters as interactive forms of becoming. Rooted in anthropology and multispecies ethnography, this book introduces new questions and areas for consideration in the field of animals and society.
