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
This sure was a different type of book than what I normally would pick up. I'm so glad that I did!
The story takes place in 1954 where we meet 63 year old Annie Wilkins after getting a terminal diagnosis. Annie buys a horse and sets out to travel from Maine to California with her horse, Tarzan and dog Depeche Toi. She travels on horseback! Can you just imagine?
This book made me incredibly sad and incredibly happy all at the same time. During her travels we get to meet a lot of real life characters along the way we get to watch and experience what Annie, Tarzan and Depeche Toi did. It is a wonderful book.
