Susan Richards, author of CHOSEN BY A HORSE I began reading Last Chance Mustang with the eye of an expert skeptic. At first, I scoffed at the folly of a lawyer working with such a challenging horse. But like the horse he redeemed, I was made a believer by Mitch Bornstein's compassion, authenticity and resiliency. I was expecting illusions but was delighted with insights and inspiration. In the language of the horse, I bow to this book.

Chris Irwin, author of HORSES DON'T LIE and DANCING WITH YOUR DARK HORSE Author InformationAt the age of seven, Mitchell Bornstein jumped atop his first horse, and in the thirty-eight years since, he has pursued his life's dream of working with damaged, abused, and difficult horses. College, law school, and nineteen years as an attorney led him on a journey to save the horses that no one else will. He's traveled the Midwest, entered stalls that others won't, and mounted steeds that others can't with a firm yet respectful approach. For Bornstein, there's no such thing as a bad horse.
