Mustang Journal: 3,000 Miles Across America by Horse

Description

At age forty, the award-winning author partnered with Shawnee, a castoff pinto mustang, on a cross-country journey. After traversing the historic Kearny Trail from California to New Mexico, the two then followed the covered-wagon ruts of the Santa Fe Trail and the stone bridges of the Old National Road. Tossed by tornadoes, baked by sun, pounded by hail, they crossed the nation, meeting fascinating human and animal characters along the way. Inspiring and humorous, this story is for everyone who wants to live life to the fullest. It offers new insight into self-imposed limitations, and kindles hope for a better tomorrow. -- Amazon.com.
