Traveling with a horse and finding a place to board it overnight is made easier with this reference. It includes not only stables that board horses on a daily basis, but over 1,000 listings for... This description may be from another edition of this product.
We bought and used the 2001 edition to plan our round trip to Maine and back to Texas these past two years. We are ordering the latest 2002 as gifts for some of our traveling and trail riding horse friends. This guide is somewhat more comprehensive in numbers of listings than the Nationwide Overnight Stabling Directory, which we also bought and used. They each contain some listings that the other does not, but Jim's has more, and seemed to have fewer problems with out of date phone numbers (area code changes, usually) or folks no longer providing a service. Also, the Overnight guide does not list prices, nor include specific driving directions to the "horse hotel" (they want you to call first, not just show up - which is fine). It appears folks listing with Overnight pay for the privilege, whereas Jim's listings are free (hence more of them?).If you're doing some serious cross country horse traveling, buy both books, if not than this US Stabling Guide is the one to get you most anywhere with lots of good choices.
