About This Book

A first-person equine narrator recounts life from foalhood through many owners, alternating scenes of affectionate care and injurious neglect. Daily routines, work demands, injuries, and recovery are observed in detail, with attention to handling, rest, and equipment that affect wellbeing. Episodes show how individual human choices shape the horse's fate and advocate for kinder treatment. The narrative proceeds chronologically and balances intimate stable impressions with broader reflections on responsibility toward working animals.
