AMONG WILD HORSES: A PORTRAIT OF THE PRYOR MOUNTAIN MUSTANGS: Rhonda Massingham: Storey Publishing: 2006: Nonfiction: 134 pages
"They are living symbols of the historic and pioneer spirit of the West," so says Congress when discussing one of this nation's symbols of freedom, the wild mustangs. Lynne Pomeranz spent two years photographing the incredibly beautiful wild mustangs of the Pryor Mountains located between Wyoming and Montana. This 134 page extremely easy read is absolutely worth a look, EVEN by those who are non-horse lovers. Pomeranz's ability to capture these mustangs and extraordinary diversity of the land they call home, is remarkable. If you only look at the photos you will close the book thinking, 'those are some great pictures'. If you look at the photos AND read the book, you will feel as if you had the opportunity to get to know up close and personal, some of America's proudest symbols of freedom. In any case, no one will be able to get through the entire book without at least one smile or ahhhh.
