Crafted from extensive interviews and set in eastern Wyoming, In the Scent of Horses, Hay, and Old Barns is Pamela Galbreath’s spirited biography of Eleanor Prince, who faced the hardships of ranching to realize her life-long goal of founding a horsemanship school unique to her belief in the power of communication between horse and rider. Still teaching in her 90s, she maintained that “I was nutty about horses and couldn’t see life any other way.”

Not just about horses, the book is, according to an unsolicited review, a “ground-up, grassroots, social history of an ordinary woman who transformed the lives of others through acts of love, courage, tenacity, and passion.”
