"It's hard for any of us who have helped put this booklet together to realize that is has been less than ten years since the United States made its first entry into the world of international endurance riding.

Little did any of us dream that in less than a decade endurance riding would take its place among the recognized disciplines of the equestrian world, and that we would be invited to become part of the United States Equestrian Team!

Realizing that experience is by far the best teacher, we have put together for us, and for all of you, this booklet of information about international endurance riding."
