For centuries, the wild horses of North America have figured
prominently in art, history and folklore as symbols of beauty,
strength and freedom. Native Americans revered them, and early
ranchers and farmers would not have been able to settle the American
West without them. Now, because of such modern threats as
urbanization and government round-ups, these noble creatures are
fighting for their very survival. Traer Scott, author of Merrell’s
Street Dogs and Shelter Dogs, focuses on the horses’ current plight
and the efforts of the individuals and groups trying to protect them.
Through stunning black-and-white portraits and location photographs,
she reveals the intelligent, caring and protective nature of these
wild horses, and also relates the stories of their daily lives, and
of their rescue and rehabilitation.
