Key Selling Points

  • This book is controversial in that it challenges the accepted theory that wild horses were introduced to North America by Spanish explorers, when in fact, new research shows they may have been in North America all along.
  • Wild horses, and mustangs in particular, are an iconic symbol of the American West.
  • Young people have played a major role in protecting wild horses all over the world and Wild Horses highlights their important work.
  • Wild horses are under threat as their protections have been stripped away by the US government in recent years. This is a story of conservation and ecology and features examples of how wild horses are being protected all over the world.
  • The author is a self-proclaimed horsewoman who, as a child, thought she had tamed her own mustang. She took most of the photos in this book herself.
