From Publishers Weekly
Fans of National Velvet and the Black Stallion may enjoy Canfield and
Hansen's latest collection of heart-warming stories, which targets devotees
of all things equine. Divided into seven sections-"A Special Bond,"
"Horses as Teachers," "These Amazing Animals," "Horses
as Healers," "On Companionship and Commitment," "Horse...cetera,"
"And They're Off"-the book contains 93 stories about "the
horse's intelligence, versatility and intuitiveness." Vikki Marshall
writes warmly about how her carriage horse, Lynn, walked right past
a group of noisy firemen and smoldering timbers as part of her job in
"The Wedding." Craig Wilson remembers his amateur run down
the Saratoga Race Course in "Down the Stretch He Comes, Hanging
on for Dear Life." Other stories describe the pleasures and difficulties
of owning, and losing, these beautiful animals. There's a good dose
of schmaltz, but fans of this series will surely find what they want
here.
