The Horse Talker

About the Book

Lan, a boy raised as a Comanche during the mid-1800s, has the gift of horse talking. The young protagonist follows a band of mustangers through the territories north of the Rio Grande in search of a legendary white stallion called The Ghost.

"Consistently intense in mood and character portrayal, this Indian western is considerably more rounded than many books set in the period and is recommended."

—Virginia Kirkus
