Críticas:

"A gimlet-eyed look at the place of the wild horse in the landscape of the American West.... Of a piece with Marc Reisner's Cadillac Desert." -- Kirkus Reviews "A gripping, myth-busting biography of the mustang." -- Dan Egan, author of The Death and Life of the Great Lakes "Colorful, well-researched and well-reasoned." -- Bruce Jacobs - Shelf Awareness "Wide-ranging [and] scrupulously reported." -- Pia Catton - Weekly Standard

Reseña del editor:

The wild horse, popularly known as the mustang, is so ingrained in the American imagination that even those who have never seen one know what it stands for: freedom, independence, the bedrock ideals of the nation. But in modern times it has become entangled in controversy and bureaucratic mismanagement, and now its future is imperiled. In Wild Horse Country, Pulitzer Prize-winning New York Times reporter David Philipps traces the rich history of wild horses in America and investigates the shocking dilemma they pose in our own time.
