Book excerpt: Join award-winning author and photographer Carol Walker as she tells the story, in words and photographs, of the wild horses of Adobe Town herd of Wyoming, and the dramatic fight to protect these magnificent and endangered animals. Protective. Dignified. Elegant and affectionate. Certainly beautiful. Above all else, loyal. These are the horses of Wyoming's famed Adobe Town herd, their stunning images caught in the wild by award-winning photographer Carol Walker. Especially remarkable are the snowcapped stallion that Walker thinks of as Bronze Warrior and his band of Appaloosa-marked mares and offspring. But their freedom was to be curtailed. In the fall of 2014, the Adobe Town horses were rounded up, their bands divided. Bronze Warrior and his sons were shipped to Colorado, their mares to a holding facility in Wyoming, and their young sent to Carson City, Nevada. Moved by the horse's strong family bonds in the wild, Walker joined with other advocates to intercede. This is the story, captured in Walker's signature dramatic images, of searching out, gathering together, and ultimately reuniting Bronze Warrior's extended family at the Black Hills Wild Horse Sanctuary. Galloping to Freedom will engage your heart and forever change your view of America's wild horses.

Overwhelmed by grief and fear, she is not only suspected of killing her beloved husband for his money, but a former lover turned stalker suddenly reappears and their remaining horses are viciously slashed in the night. Allison, 37, a successful California painter and avid horsewoman, deeply in love with her older husband, refuses to accept his death or give up their dream of an Appaloosa sanctuary to honor Nez Perce Indians murdered on their ranch at the famous Battle of the Big Hole. Instead, she creates an alternate world through paintings, letters, and dreams so she can carry on their love affair for eternity. While her older sister, an aggressive LA prosecuting attorney, fears Allison is losing her mind, Allison is supported by local friends and her ranch foreman, a wise old Mexican shaman with a foot in both worlds. Fighting to keep her son and horses safe, Allison begins her defining work, a huge triptych, “Dreams of Appaloosas”, but first she must confront her husband's murderer who is much closer than she ever imagined.
