I was wondering if anyone knows where I could find a copy of this book, by Nuno Oliveira.

I've checked amazon, abe books, alibris & ebay, and none of them have it. I also did a google search, which turned up nothing.

I dunno if it was said here before but me and many other people have been searching for Nuno Oliveira's books for ages, even in all the secon hand bookstores and nothing. You can get " Reflections on Equestrian Art" everywere. As for the others, either read them at the library or get the complete works in german or french. I just bought the french version and i'm blessing the days i had to read manga in french cos the english version was 3 times more expensive!  laugh rolleyes

I'm gessing that maybe they'll re-edit some of the books, or at least do an english version of the complete works, but I dunno when?  blink

a note by the way! I've only just read about 10 pages, but he mentions the word "kindness" sooooooo often that i'm starting to feel like a cruel bully! and me thinking I was so soft on my brat...  paperbag I'm reeeeeeeally feeling sorry I wasn't born sooner! I would've LOVED to meet the sir.  Cheesy

I've been looking too and no luck!  (Interestingly it does seem to be available in German!)

If you keep searching Abe and Alibris a copy may eventually come up, but expect to pay a fair bit for one. I was searching for five years before I found my copy!  Shocked
