This story is based on the real life adventures of the author’s first pony: Dusty, a grey Connemara pony, who was bought for Kat by her Granddad when Kat was thirteen. As a teenager, Kat worked at a holiday trekking centre looking after the horses. Dusty was a sharp and lively pony. He took riders out trekking in the woods and on the moors of Exmoor. Dusty loved to run, and on this particular ride, he ditched his poor rider on top of the moors and bolted. When they learned of Dusty’s disappearance, a team of yard workers set out to find him. Six hours later Dusty was found, shivering all alone in the dark of the wild moors. He was brought home by trailer looking quite bedraggled and feeling rather sorry for himself. This was not the first time Dusty had pulled a stunt like this. He was to be sold because he was not a suitable temperament. Kat was devastated to think she would never see Dusty again. But her Granddad bought Dusty and he was taken home with her!About the Author Author Kat Midgley has a lifelong passion for horses. She sat on her first horse, a sixteen hand hunter, at the age of eighteen months.

Excerpt from Letters From an Oregon RanchHow did we find it? It -happened rather strangely. Last summer, in a purely accidental way, there drifted to us a little pamphlet from a real-estate agent, in which we learned more than we had ever known of the beauties and attractions of Oregon. We read of her glorious snow-capped mountains, of great dim forests, of sparkling trout-laden streams, of wooded hills and blossoming valleys, swiftly flowing rivers, and fern shaded springs of delicious cold water gushing from rock and hillside. From that hour the madness was in our blood. We said, Let us act at once, and not stand shivering on the brink. And so the leap into the unknown was taken, landing us in a small town here in the height of the rainy season. Then, under skies that were ashen and sober, in prosy fact as well as poetic figure, began the search for our new homes. It was like searching for the Golden Fleece.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
