Resumen del Editor
Carrying on from The Mare and the Mouse, this series, The Stories of My Horses, is not just a compendium of imaginative romantic narratives written to casually entertain the horse loving public.
As romantically remembered as they might seem to be, they are actually straightforward historical accounts of what happens when a life-loving fool like me, a native of that beautiful, landlocked cultural island called Northern New Mexico, who in the latter half of the 20th century decided he must live his everyday life in direct defiance of the soul-shrinking threat of modernity’s earth-wrecking ugliness and mediocre existence, by keeping some modicum of the bright shine and outrageous living passion of our real souls alive by flying free and beautiful on the backs of flesh and blood horses over a live unpeopled, unmanicured land…
I’ll admit I’m a romantic and heroic. But to be honest, it’s not my fault: it’s the fault of all the horses I’ve ever known. For horses since forever—real horses, I mean—have always been romantic, noble and heroic by definition of their very existence, and to be with them, well, you too have to develop a soul that corresponds!
In my romantic struggle for beauty in an unromantic mechanical age, my horses, simply by how they were, and how we looked, and how we were together, although no more than a tiny broadside against the ghost ship of mediocrity of this crazy age, were some kind of victory just by the fact that we still existed. Horses inspire courage against hopeless odds just by their courage and beauty.

Historia
Monty Roberts' father, a traditional horse trainer, had taught his son to dominate a horse in order to "break" it. But when he was 13, Monty made a discovery that changed his life. As he watched a mare tame a rebellious colt, Monty saw that she was speaking to it through eye and body movements. Astonished, Monty realized that he could train horses by using their language, speaking to them in ways that would form trust and understanding. Developing techniques based on what he learned from the horses around him, Monty embarked on a remarkable career - one that would bring him international fame as the real Horse Whisperer.

Cowboy stories and movies about the Wild West are full of amazing characters. Yet many of the lawmen we think of as heroes were anything but - some were violent scoundrels and outlaws themselves. Among all the lawmen of the frontier, one man stands out as a true hero: Bass Reeves. In his day, Bass Reeves was the most successful federal marshal in the United States. True to the mythical code of the West, he never drew his gun first. He rounded up hundreds of outlaws and was shot at countless times but was never hit. Bass Reeves was born into slavery.

He calls all their geldings George and their mares Jewel and warns her not to get attached. The horses are there on the ranch to be sold, plain and simple. But with all the stress at school (the Big Four - Linda, Mary A., Mary N., Joan - have turned against her) and home (nothing feels right with her brother, Danny, gone), Abby can't help but seek comfort in the Georges and the Jewels, who greet her every day with soft nickers.

The rules of law and society have never taken hold in the Sierra Madre, which is home to bandits, drug smugglers, cave-dwelling Tarahumara Indians, opium farmers, and other assorted outcasts. Outsiders are not welcome; drugs are the primary source of income; murder is all but a regional pastime. Fifteen years ago, journalist Richard Grant developed what he calls "an unfortunate fascination" with this lawless place. Locals warned that he would meet his death there, but he didn't believe them - until his last trip.

Twenty-two years old Cole Morgan struggled after a career ending football injury and then the tragic loss of his parents in the winter of 1937. He felt like a man with no destination... running from lost opportunities and memories better left alone. Maybe it was for this reason he accepted the offer of a near stranger to use his education and backcountry skills to work on the Greybull, one of the largest ranches in Wyoming. With little fanfare he packed all his worldly possessions in his beloved truck and headed for the small town of Meeteetsee.

Historia
Inspiring hope, solace, and courage in living through our losses, author Martín Prechtel, trained in the Tzutujil Maya shamanic tradition, shares profound insights on the relationship between grief and praise in our culture - how the inability that many of us have to grieve and weep properly for the dead is deeply linked with the inability to give praise for living. In modern society, grief is something that we usually experience in private, alone, and without the support of a community.

Historia
The Unlikely Peace at Cuchumaquic is both an epic story and a cry to the heart of humanity based on the author’s realization that human survival depends on keeping alive the seeds of our “original forgotten spiritual excellence.” Prechtel relates our current state of ecological crisis to the rapid disappearance of biodiversity, indigenous cultures, and shared human values. He demonstrates how real human culture is exterminated when real (not genetically modified) seeds are lost.

Historia
Beautiful and hilarious, tearful and rambunctious, very real, ironic, and magic-filled, Martín Prechtel’s book The Mare and the Mouse is a series of lyrical sagas in tribute to each of the native New Mexican horses that carried him through his youth on the Reservation and then again during the difficult times following his return home after over a decade in the Mayan Highlands of Guatemala.

Historia
Inspiring hope, solace, and courage in living through our losses, author Martín Prechtel, trained in the Tzutujil Maya shamanic tradition, shares profound insights on the relationship between grief and praise in our culture - how the inability that many of us have to grieve and weep properly for the dead is deeply linked with the inability to give praise for living. In modern society, grief is something that we usually experience in private, alone, and without the support of a community.

Historia
Martín Prechtel revives a hitherto unknown Guatemalan Tzutujil Mayan tale of the beginnings of the world with a poetic retelling of the story. Prechtel authoritatively retells the powerful tale of the Tall Girl who weaves the world in a loom, her parents the Sun and the Moon who repudiate her suitors, and the mysterious man who disguises himself as a hummingbird to lure her away.

My all time favorite Martin Prechtel
There’s nothing like a good book. Especially in non-fiction, book full of amazing stories, taking place in the mountains of lovely New Mexico. All of Martin’s books are incredible. This one for sure get some outside of the other arenas to talk about his horses. Anybody likes stories told in language use to dick in Mexican accent. In this book and maybe other books of Martins are for you.

Listen to it!!!
You should really listen to this! I’ve listened to or read everything he’s done and I’ve met him several times and he’s a beautiful and inspiring human being. He really brings to light the malaise of the lives that the majority of us live, have inherited. As Martin would say , let us jump up and live again! Martin, thank you for these beautiful beautiful words!

Spiritual Education through Entertaining Stories
I love everything ever written by Martin Prechtel so I was eager to add this book to my Audible collection. I did have a small reservation that I would miss the spiritual lessons that his other books are brimming with if the topic was horse stories. I should have known and trusted that Martín’s wisdom would be woven through any book no matter the topic. I can see there is a side of Nature in the animals that we may interact with, that has not been given the amount of true respect and reverence that is deserved. I am inspired to get to know this hidden aspect in myself and in the world outside of myself. Thank you for being one of my beloved teachers Martín- I am forever grateful.

A Wild Ride
Listening to Martín read his books is like hanging out with the best campfire storyteller of all time, or the fiercely independent and adventurous grandfather you wish you had, or your smartest friend who is also a wild, horse-riding, stakes-raising poet. Martín is absolutely not "phoning in" the reading - he'a really there, reliving and relaying the events with feeling. I love when he makes himself laugh with his own jokes, or by the craziness of his own true stories.
There will doubtless be "horse people" who are turned off by the author's low opinion of English style riding and a lot of the culture that surrounds it, but I hope most can look past that and enjoy how much he loves his horses, and wants people to have real, two-way relationships with theirs. And even if you don't read it for that, read it for the history and culture! The glossary alone is a fascinating seminar on horse history, especially New Mexico and the Southwest, and you will learn things about English and Spanish and Tewa and Caras and Diné words that you never knew you never knew.
I love all of Martín's books, loved The Mare and the Mouse before this one, and can't wait for the Canyon Wren to come out to round out the trilogy.
If you want to be inspired to be more alive, more wild, and more in love with life, I recommend this book.

Soul food
Reading Martin's words function as a type of nutrition, feeding the eyes and thus the heart. Hearing Martin's words fleshed by sound is a whole other kind of blessing. So happy to have these audio books.
