Lynn Wiese Sneyd and H. Alan Day
Patti R. Albaugh
How many of us have used the phrase “Wild horses couldn’t make me—”? H. Alan Day, author of The Horse Lover: A Cowboy’s Quest to Save the Wild Mustang, spoke to SaddleBrooke Sunrise Rotary about starting the first government-sponsored wild horse sanctuary in the United States. Hearing his story, many of those in the audience concluded that his journey was a two-way street. The wild mustangs didn’t make him do anything except devote his time, energy and love toward 1500 horses who needed a home.
As a long time cattle rancher, he never thought he would be working with 1500 wild horses. The cowboy and the beasts shared a four-year journey filled with adventures. His co-author, Lynn Wiese Sneyd, shared some of her adventures, working with a free-spirited cowboy and trying to bridge the worlds of publishing and ranching.
Day and Sneyd’s book is available in bookstores and amazon.com.
