The Reins of Life by John Anthony Davies
This book looks at riding for the disabled. Its purpose was to benefit proprietors of riding establishments who wished to make facilities available for therapeutic activity and for those instructors and helpers who are so essential to this work. The author, who has been teaching the disabled for over 25 years - has now completely revised and enlarged the text. All royalties are to be donated to Riding for the Disabled International.
Davies, John: - John Davies was born and raised in Port Talbot, South Wales, and began writing in 2002 when he retired after thirty years as a chemist with BP Chemicals, Baglan Bay. John says that he only started writing for children after his granddaughter Freya was born in 2010. John now has two other grandchildren: Ayla, born in February 2013, and Osian, born in December 2015. John has previously published works with a strong Welsh influence, including Hewl: Stori Geraint Griffiths and Chester to Chepstow, and the children's picture book, Trevor the One-Eyed Tractor. Darren the Dragon, published in 2013, was the first of a popular series of children's books released by John. A further four books have been released since, the most recent being Darren and the Drought. John also published his first children's poetry collection, How to be a Dog, in 2014, and a second poetry collection, Antics on the Allotment, released in 2018. John has also tried his hand at writing short stories with Ten Terrific Tales published in 2016. John intends to concentrate on these genres, as he believes they satisfy his childish nature!
