Wild horses and sacred cows

by Richard Symanski

Summary

Based on more than two hundred interviews and fifteen thousand miles of travel in eight western states, Wild Horses and Sacred Cows is the exciting but not always uplifting story of the exploration and management of the West's mustangs, with particular attention to their situation since enactment of the 1971 Wild Horse Act, which declared them to be "living symbols of the historic and pioneer spirit of the West."
