Book Reviews of The Soul of a Horse: Life Lessons from the Herd
Book Review: Much praise for Joe's quest of knowledge for the horse's mind
Summary: 5 Stars
I wrote Joe a note on his Facebook page a while back, it read:
"Hey Joe -
I just re-read Soul of a Horse (I've lost count of how many times I've read it!). I just wanted to let you know how amazing the book is and how amazing it is that you are able to dig so deep into the horse's head. Your book applies wonderfully to people, and through reading it, it has helped me put some recent things into perspective.
Katherine"
I just got through a divorce, and when I first separated from my now-ex, The Soul of a Horse was the first book I pulled out, other than my Bible. Joe puts the communication between human and horse in the simplest of terms, and in such a way that I can imagine being in a round pen in my head, trying to speak the equine language. He writes so eloquently that I want to be out with a horse, seeing what I can do with them.
Joe's book has made me put into perspective my communication in the past, and how I want to communicate in the future. It has made me realize that hey, as human beings, it is imperative that we communicate with each other, especially in interpersonal relationships.
Summary of The Soul of a Horse: Life Lessons from the Herd
Look into the heart and soul of a horse.A surprise birthday gift plunged Joe and his wife, Kathleen, into the world of horses as complete neophytes without a clue as to what a horse needed or wanted. They searched for logic and sense in the rule books of traditional horse care. What they found was not what they had expected.
Written for everyone who has ever loved a horse or ever loved the idea of loving a horse, this memoir leads us on a voyage of discovery as Joe and Kathleen navigate uncharted territory on their way to achieving a true relationship with their horses. Joe Camp?s inspiring book unlocks the mystery of a majestic creature who has survived on earth, without assistance, for fifty-five million years and teaches us that the lessons he learned apply not only to horses but also to our relationships with people.
