Good Reads: Nobody’s Horses

Need a good read? Pick up Don Hoglund’s Nobody’s Horses. From Publishers Weekly: “Horse expert and veterinarian Höglund delivers a compelling and swiftly paced account of his efforts in 1994 to manage the capture and safe movement of nearly two thousand wild horses from New Mexico’s White Sands Missile Base to an Oklahoma wild horse sanctuary.” You can also find more info at Don’s Nobodys Horses website.
