Book excerpt: The Way of an Irish Horseman is the way of love for the plains meeting up with the big sky, for a wild flower blooming safely between the wheel tracks on the Oregon trail, for ridges and valleys unspoiled. I first met the "little man in the big hat" through a wee Irish newsletter he published. Cimarrón was the name, which is Spanish, meaning belonging to the wilderness. On the front of the first issue was this --- In the quiet of your heart, When you've gone and drawn apart, And on some lovely hillside, lonely lie, Let the thoughts contained herein, Give your dreams another spin. Who's to know it, if your breath comes in a sigh. In format it was no bigger than this page and it never ran over four sheets. The type was hand set in small fat letters, over-inked, and the typos were not bothersome at all. They added a kind of friendly note. The subject matter, however, was letter perfect. The man knew horses. Every breed from the Przewalski and the Onegar to the Arabian and the "man-tinkered" Thoroughbred. All bre

Book excerpt: An account of a journey through western Ireland made in 1984, fulfilling a childhood dream of a long-distance ride. The story centres on the growing bond between the author and her Connemara pony, Mollie and the many challenges that they face before the tragic conclusion in the mountains of Kerry. It is also a portrait of rural Ireland before the "Celtic Tiger" era, built up from conversations with the local people. The journey takes them through Counties Galway, Mayo, Clare and Kerry, the obstacles to their progress ranging from bogs, stone walls, and the River Shannon. "I've never tried hitchhiking with a horse before" comments the author. "It's not easy." She travelled with no set route, extending her backpacking knowledge acquired in the Andes to horse packing, "seeing the obvious advantage of climbing mountains on someone else's legs and using another's back for the packing."

Book excerpt: The essential Laurie Lee, a collection of occasional writings full of his unique vision and irresistible charm All of the wit and wisdom and poetry that made Laurie Lee one of the most celebrated English writers of the twentieth century can be found in this compilation of “first loves and obsessions.” In Part One, Lee revisits his idyllic boyhood in the Cotswolds village made famous by his bestselling autobiography, Cider with Rosie. In Part Two, he turns his attention to an earnest consideration of abstract concepts such as the power of charm, the pleasures of appetite, and the meaning of paradise. And in the final and longest section, the author of the acclaimed Spanish travelogues As I Walked Out One Midsummer Morning and A Rose for Winter tells the stories of his many other journeys—from sun-dappled Tuscany to melancholy Warsaw to the enchanting and exotic Sugar Islands of the Caribbean.
