The Hearts of Horses by Molly Gloss
5.0
Short and sweet: this novel is lovely, written in picturesque language, as we follow the work and life-adventure of Martha. A nineteen year old cowgirl, adept at breaking horses with loving guidance rather than a whip and a rope.
I loved riding along with Martha, meeting the people on her circle and “seeing” all Elwha county had to offer in 1917. My grandparents were right around Martha’s age so the facets of my understanding are clearer.
A must-read for girls who love horses or any darling who dreamt of being a cowgirl in fancy chaps.
