Book Description
He already owned and managed two ranches and needed a third about as much as he needed a permanent migraine: that’s what Alan Day said every time his friend pestered him about an old ranch in South Dakota. But in short order, he proudly owned 35,000 pristine grassy acres. The opportunity then dropped into his lap to establish a sanctuary for unadoptable wild horses previously warehoused by the Bureau of Land Management. After Day successfully lobbied Congress, those acres became Mustang Meadows Ranch, the first government-sponsored wild horse sanctuary established in the United States. The Horse Lover is Day’s personal history of the sanctuary’s vast enterprise, with its surprises and pleasures and its plentiful dangers, frustrations, and heartbreak. Day’s deep connection with the animals in his care is clear from the outset, as is his maverick philosophy of horse-whispering, with which he trained fifteen hundred wild horses. The Horse Lover weaves together Day’s recollections of his cowboying adventures astride some of his best horses, all of which taught him indispensable lessons about loyalty, perseverance, and hope. This heartfelt memoir reveals the Herculean task of balancing the requirements of the government with the needs of wild horses.

Book Description
Horse Pasture Management begins with coverage of the structure, function and nutritional value of plants, continuing into identification of pasture plants. Management of soil and plants in a pasture is covered next, followed by horse grazing behavior, feed choices of horses, management of grazing horses, and how to calculate how many horses should be grazing relative to land size. Management of hay and silage are included, since year-round grazing is not possible on many horse farms. A number of chapters deal with interactions of a horse farm with the environment and other living things. As an aid in good pasture management, one chapter explains construction and use of fencing and watering systems. Contributions are rounded out with a chapter explaining how the University of Kentucky helps horse farm managers develop their pasture management programs. - The purpose of the book is to help people provide a better life for horses - Provides the basic principles of pasture management for those involved in equine-related fields and study - Covers a variety of strategies for managing the behavior, grouping, environmental, and feeding needs of grazing horses to ensure high levels of welfare and health - Includes information on environmental best practices, plant and soil assessment, and wildlife concerns - Explains pasture-related diseases and toxic plants to be avoided - Includes links to useful resources and existing extension programs

Book Description
Jackson Riley's unplanned stop at the Cedar Falls Horse Auction sets in motion a series of events that will forever alter his future. Immediately after walking into the arena he hears the familiar sound of a whip cracking and a horse cry out in pain. Within seconds he prevents the man from striking the horse again and orders him to drop the whip. When the man says the horse is worthless and can't be trained, Jackson snaps, "You don't train a horse with a whip." He's shocked when he says he'll open the biding on the horse with an offer of $20.00 and the man accepts. Steven Whitfield, who is standing nearby, witnessed Jackson Riley's defense of the horse and immediately senses something special in the young man. He sees the letters "U.S.M.C." tattooed on his right bicep and learns that Jackson was recently released from active duty. They laugh when Jackson admits he has no place to stay, no job or place to keep his newly acquired horse. In fact, he doesn't even know the horse's name, but as the Christmas season is fast approaching he decides Christmas is a perfect name for her. In a matter of a few minutes Steven Whitfield offers him a job, a place to stay and a barn to keep his horse, which Jackson quickly accepts. By the end of his first day at Whitfield Acres, he knows the names of all the horses, their diets and their special needs. Of course, he's also made friends with Rooster and Rita, the barn dogs and Hank, Sylvester and Sylvia the barn cats.Jackson settles in and easily makes friends in Cedar Falls and Steven is impressed with his work ethic and love for animals.He stays busy at the barn and works late in the evenings putting an old wagon in tiptop shape. He's also received permission from Steven to put up a heavy bag in the storage barn, where he spends time pounding away at his demons. Yet, it's his beautiful mare, Christmas, who has quickly attached herself to him and listens to his stories of an unhappy childhood. There is no doubting her love for him and she willingly follows him without having to be led. Then there are the times when she watches him work on the old wagon and sometimes pokes her head over his shoulders as though inspecting his work. In no time at all she's learned to close her stall gate and Steven laughs and asks when he'll be teaching her to drive his truck.The Whitfield's daughter, Taylor, arrives home for the Christmas Holiday, but before she can be introduced to Jackson, she finds him working in the barn. She snaps an order to him to saddle her horse and when he hesitates slightly, she barks her order again. When he suggests that she should calm down before she overheats, she says she's already passed the boiling point. Shortly thereafter their first meeting ends in a splash and she vows to hate him and her mother demands that Steven fire him. Steven refuses and Taylor finds herself in the barn with Jackson once again. He's talking with Christmas and tells her she's beautiful. Taylor bluntly tells him he has no right to call her beautiful and he replies that he's talking to his horse. When she demands to know if he's comparing her to a horse, he replies, "Only the back end." Although she makes every effort to avoid him, it's her father who continues to find ways to keep them together.A chance encounter with a little girl and her mother while she and Jackson are shopping for Christmas ornaments brings Taylor and everyone in the store to tears. Now, her promise to hate him is crumbling and the road ahead is a bumpy and sometimes funny ride. To add to her dilemma, Christmas gently nudges her into Jackson's arms and very close to a kiss. Jackson is also on a quest to find his mother and their reunion just before Christmas sets the stage for completing a journey he so desperately wanted. And, when Taylor admits she's in love with him, she fears her heart is about to be broken.
