The Ride of Her Life: The True Story of a Woman, Her Horse, and Their Last-Chance Journey Across America by Elizabeth Letts
4.0
"Should she accept the fact that she was just an old woman whose time had passed, from whom nothing surprising or new or vivid was expected?"
From the title and the mere fact of the existence of this book, we can see that Annie Wilkins did not accept this as fact - she pulled together her courage and embarked on an epic journey across America on horseback. This is the story of her amazing perseverance against all odds and all the kind and helpful people she met along the way. It is also the story of the special friendship between Annie and her three animal companions. Truly heartwarming.
