What books do you want to see?

Ann Hyland's Equus: The Horse in the Roman World (1990) covers both these aspects fairly well (using the author's personal experience of horse training), although it is quite old now. Does it need significant revision though?

Well, I'm not that big a fan of Hyland. Furthermore she's a big fan of arabic horses and knows a lot about endurance, but less about classical dressage.

Furthermore I indeed would suggest that her books need significant revision. At least I (and an academic I know working on greek cavalry) wouldn't suggest her books to anyone interested in ancient horsemanship.
