The Dark Horse

About this book

Sent away as a colt because his color didnt reflect his fine racing lineage Colonel the Dark Horse finds himself in a strange land thousands of miles from home. Charro born in the badlands of the arid West and orphaned at a few months of age is rescued from starvation by a cowboy named Brad. At the Hip-O Ranch on the edge of the badlands fate brings the two colts together to form a bond that cannot be broken. With 40 line drawings and colorful prose Will James renders two weak-kneed green colts who become the best of their breeds: Colonel a race-winning champion and Charro the wiliest wild mustang the West has ever seen.
