Reviews
"Carole Fletcher writes from the heart about a subject that is dear to my own heart. The horse makes us look at ourselves without subterfuge; he's demanding but not critical. Smart people say we ride like the company we keep. Carole and I would agree: we couldn't be in better company than with a horse."-- Ray Hunt, legendary horseman and author of Think Harmony with Horses: An In-Depth Study of the Horse/Man Relationship, "What a beautiful book, full of hope in times of deep despair, and the realization of the unconditional love and sensitivity that comes from God's gift to humans -- horses!"-- Roy Rogers, Jr., "You don't have to be a horse person to be deeply touched by this book; it is an immensely moving story, candidly and honorably told. The horses that helped Fletcher on the long road back, especially Dial and his tricks, captivated me."-- Maxine Kumin, Pulitzer Prize-winning poet and author of Inside the Halo and Beyond: The Anatomy of a Recovery, "Carole Fletcher's inspiring story is one of great courage, told with truly extraordinary good humor and a total lack of self-pity. It should be an inspiration to every reader, like Douglas Bader's Reach for the Sky, and to everyone who loves horses a reminder of the healing role they can play in our lives, and the debt we owe to them."-- Michael Korda, author of Horse People: Scenes from the Riding Life

Synopsis
Carole Fletcher's story opens on a November morning in 1975. She began this day as a striking young teacher in a happy relationship; a horse lover and car enthusiast -- ultimately, a young woman eager for what lay ahead. But a gasoline explosion changed all that, leaving her with second- and third-degree burns over sixty-five percent of her body. At day's end, surgeons warned she had a one-in-ten chance of surviving the night and that even if she did, it would be more than likely she would never walk again -- let alone ride a horse.Carole surprised everyone: her family, her doctors, even herself. After seven months in the hospital and twenty-eight skin graft surgeries, she began to ride her beloved horse, Bailey. Thanks to the therapeutic nature of riding, she slowly regained almost full use of her legs. And though more surgery and almost four years of rehabilitation would follow, Carole eventually plunged into the world of performance with a clever trick horse named Dial.Carole Fletcher tells an inspiring and eloquent story of recovery and rebirth. "Healed by Horses" offers a compelling account of one woman's uncommon courage and perseverance, and illustrates the extraordinary connection possible between humans and horses, and how that bond can restore, motivate, and heal., One of the best-known trick trainers in the United States offers the powerful and inspiring story of a young woman's physical and psychological recovery and the key role of horses in the process.

- d***d (47)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufThis book is fantastic! The quality is exactly as described, it’s in great condition, the appearance is clean and basically brand-new, and it came at an excellent price. This is a first-rate, five-star seller that deserves everyone's business. They packaged the book with extreme care, shipped it quickly, and communicated effectively throughout the process. This was an excellent buying experience and I wouldn't hesitate to buy from this seller again.
- 0***1 (1598)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufThis book arrived within the time period given and was in the 'very good' condition described. Unfortunately, only being packaged in a plastic bag to traverse the Atlantic meant that all four corners got a battering (I would be happy to pay bit more in future for a bit of cardboard support in packaging) but all in all, the price was good and overall service for books that are difficult to get over here, I am very happy with this purchase and would recommend this seller. Will buy again from them.
