Just about any time somebody catches up a horse, there is a story in the works. Thoroughbred or bronc, work horse or saddle horse, they all seem to share that unpredictability that lends the laughter and suspense vital to any good tale. Over the years particular horses, horse people and horse situations have risen head and withers above the rest: * Beady Bob has second thoughts after two freckle-faced boys conscript him and his VW bus to transport Silver down the road: the horse, confined to the van, hammers home a couple of hard truths * The search for a lost trail tests the mettle of a couple of riders: the combines effects of the heat, the insects, the bear track and the dust take their toll on the friendship and the situation disintegrates into hilarious chaos * A couple of rookies learn the hard way how to break a team--as they rocket overland in a rowboat * No one tells these stories better than Jim Nelson, whose fourteen favorites collected here create an unforgettable book.
Jim Nelson brings an actor's talent to humorous writing.
