Specificatii
Historically the world of equestrian travel has contained an
exciting mixture of unique men and women. Some are adventurers
seeking danger from the back of their horses. Others are travelers
discovering the beauties of the countryside they slowly ride
through. A few are searching for inner truths while cantering
across desolate parts of the planet. Then there is Messanie
Wilkins. She was acting on orders from the Lord In 1954, at the age
of 63, Wilkins had plenty to worry about. A destitute spinster in
ill health, Wilkins had been told she had less than two years left
to live, provided she spent them quietly. With no family ties, no
money, and no future in her native Maine, Wilkins decided to take a
daring step. Using the money she had made from selling homemade
pickles, Wilkins bought a tired summer camp horse and made
preparations to ride from the Atlantic coast to the Pacific Ocean.
Yet before leaving she flipped a coin, asking God to direct her to
go or not. When the coin came up heads several times in a row, one
of America's most unlikely equestrian heroines set off. What
followed was one of the twentieth century's most remarkable
equestrian journeys. Accompanied by her faithful horse, Tarzan,
Wilkins suffered through a host of obstacles including blistering
deserts and freezing snow storms, yet never lost faith that she
would complete her 7,000 mile odyssey. Last of the Saddle Tramps is
thus the warm and humorous story of a humble American heroine bound
for adventure and the Pacific Ocean. The classic tale is amply
illustrated with photographs.
