About this listen
"I've started horses since I was 12 years old and have been bit, kicked, bucked off and run over. I've tried every physical means to contain my horse in an effort to keep from getting myself killed. I started to realize that things would come much easier for me once I learned why a horse does what he does. This method works well for me because of the kinship that develops between horse and rider."
—Buck Brannaman
In The Faraway Horses, Buck Brannaman shares his renowned methods for horse training and provides a behind-the-scenes glimpse into Robert Redford's movie The Horse Whisperer, for which he was the technical adviser.

A great story
Very enjoyable book to listen to, both for the story and the narration. I could listen to Buck Brannaman talk all day long, so I was a little disappointed that he wasn't narrating his book but the man who did, absolutely did him justice. He too has a calming voice and captured a bit of Buck's style of communication that showed enough similarity to be authentic but not so much that it seemed like he was trying to impersonate him. Really enjoyed everything about this audiobook.

A wonderful book for horse lovers
I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this book. Cleverly written with stories to inspire, entertain, and full your heart. If you're a natural horsemanship person or enjoy horse training in general, this book is worth a listen.

Fantastic & Inspiring Story
I follow Buck's methods & had no idea that he'd been through so much in his adult life (I was aware of his childhood). An inspiring, heartfelt & often witty account of situations that make up this amazing man. Many fantastic tips for horsemanship too. I couldn't stop listening & devoured this in a short space of time. I hope that you enjoy it as much as I did.

Really loved this one. Being a horse person who loves to connect with the horses on another level made me appreciate Buck's story.

A staple in my library
This book is on regular circulation in my audio library. Each time I listen to it, I learn something more and become that bit more of a better person. That's what Buck does best. Not only makes horses better, but those around him also.
15/10 rating for this book
