Hi you all, another animal submission for your validating pleasure. Wild Horses I have Known By Hope Ryden From the Book Jacket: To understand any domesticated animal, it is useful to understand how its wild counterpart lives. Watch lions and you will see your cat. Study wolves and you will know your dog. And observe wild mustangs and you will gain insight into your horse. Hope Ryden did just that. For three decades she has made repeated field trips to wild horse country to observe and photograph the activities of free-roaming mustangs. In conversational essays and with stunning, up-close photographs, Ms. Ryden presents readers with fascinating observations of the social hierarchies, survival strategies, and habits of wild horses. She also recounts personal adventures, some terrifying, some funny, and some mysterious. The result is a book as thoughtful as it is beautiful and as informative as it is exciting. Readers will never again look at a domestic horse in the same way. HOPE RYDEN is one of the foremost authorities on America's wild horses. She helped to draft federal legislation to protect them and has served as an expert witness in court on their behalf. This is her fourth nonfiction book on wild horses, and her articles and photographs on the subject have appeared in National Geographic and other publications. Ms. Ryden has also authored a novel, Wild Horse Summer, set in the Pryor Mountains, where most of the pictures in this book were taken. Shelley L. Rhodes B.S.
