Adventures of a blind colt as he roams with a band of mustangs and is adopted and trained as a saddle horse by ten-year old Whitey. What ages would I recommend it too? Five and up. Length? A couple of hours. Characters? Memorable, several characters. Setting? Real world, southwest US pre-1900. Written approximately? 1940. Does the story leave questions in the readers mind? Ready to read more. Any issues the author (or a more recent publisher) should cover? No. Short storyline: A colt is born bind, and a pre-teen rancher wants to keep him alive, and not kill him out of mercy. Notes for the reader: My book was so old, the pages crumbled. Spoiler alert: Reading the end, you get the feeling that the old man used his horse trader senses to encourage the pre-teen to work really hard to save the colt. He likely knew all along everything the boy did. A heart warming story. no reviews | add a review
