Wind, Wild Horse Rescue, is an adventure about America's wild
mustangs and their dangerous plight for survival and potential
elimination forever from public lands. In today's world, horses are
not a necessity for work or transportation as they once were in the
days of the Wild West. Unwanted horses are often abused, abandoned
or worse. Handling and management of the wild herds and the
inhumanity of the slaughterhouse debate has several sides, making
the future of the wild mustang questionable. This book reveals many
of life's challenges to wild horses through the eyes, ears, and
senses of a young colt named "Wind," who is chased by a helicopter
and captured in a roundup. The names are fictitious, the events are
real. The author hopes the world will realize wild mustangs should
be treated humanely and allowed to live on the public lands that
have been set aside for them. Together, we must ensure future
generations of American people will be able to enjoy and love them
as living treasures and not just in the movies. The author, Denise
F. Brown grew up next to several horse farms. Her love for horses
and animals, and her talent as an equine artist, gave her the
courage to write and illustrate this book. Wind has over 100
beautiful equine sketches and paintings by Denise F. Brown.

incoming tide traps her on the island. She is forced to spend the
night there. Spotted by a visitor to the nearby park, she becomes
famous as her story is broadcast over the Internet, on television
stations, and printed in local newspapers. This is her story. "I
found it irresistible to write and illustrate this story about a
little deer seen running around the island and swimming ashore in
the rough ocean. I embellished it through a deer's viewpoint and
added her parent's warnings." - Denise F. Brown
