Born Wild - The Soul of a Horse by Joe Camp, Kathleen Camp

Born Wild - The Soul of a Horse by Joe Camp
I received this book free to review from Netgalley. I chose it because of the lovely photo of the baby horse on the front. The book has three main parts - a story about a group of wild horses told from the point of view of the horses, the author's story about himself raising horses using the horse-whisperer method, and a rant/warning about the dreadful things the Bureau of Land Management does to the poor wild horses that it is supposed to be protecting. I think the main purpose of the book is to try to bring attention to the fact that the BLM is doing a great disservice to the very animals that it is supposed to protect. The author does a good job of highlighting the problems that this group is perpetuating. I do hope that something is done to change the way the BLM operates and I hope this book can help bring attention to that issue.
