The author grew up in a rather unusual household. Her father a champion trainer, she shared her life with thoroughbred racehorses, mares, foals and ponies, as well as an ever-present pack of boxers and lurchers. The running family joke was that women ain't people. She had to prove them wrong. This book tells her story of self-discovery.
