High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Brothers Tom Dorrance (May 11, 1910 - June 11, 2003) and Bill Dorrance (January 19, 1906-July 20, 1999) are considered among the founders of the modern Natural horsemanship movement. Born and raised on an Oregon cattle ranch with a background in the Great Basin "Buckaroo" tradition, they promoted natural, gentle methods of horse training, emphasizing "feel" of the horse and observation of its responses to the handler.They had a particularly strong influence on Ray Hunt and Hunt's disciple, Buck Brannaman as well as Arabian horse breeder and trainer Sheila Varian. Many horse trainers claim influence from the Dorrance brothers.

I wasn't ready to spend the $60 if it's only wickapedia articles, if you know what I mean.  But if it was truly researched and verified by the families then maybe it's worth having.  It just came out the end of September so I son't know if many know about it....

If it's the "good stuff" then I think we ALL need to take a look!

There's a Wikibook on Buck as well that I just found.. And it's 60 bucks or so too.. I am not sure who wrote them or how they came about getting the info and I don't think Buck had anything to do with his Wickibook. So I think I'll stick with the published ones I know of..
Just me two cents..

Thanks for that, Smokie.  I did email Emily at Eclectic Horseman earlier this week and she's checking into it too.
