Description

2022 National Indie Excellence Award Winner, Colorado Book Award Winner, Nautilus Silver Award Winner, Reading The West Longlist Nominee, Sarton Awards Shortlist Book "Testimony to the healing power of wildness...a candid memoir that interweaves a trajectory of loss, pain, and hard-won serenity with a paean to wild horses." --KIRKUS REVIEWS Kathryn Wilder's personal story of grief, motherhood, and return to the desert entwines with the story of America's mustangs as Wilder makes a home on the Colorado Plateau, her property bordering a mustang herd. Desert Chrome illuminates these controversial creatures--their complex history in the Americas, their powerful presence on the landscape, and ways to help both horses and habitats stay wild in the arid West--and celebrates the animal nature in us all.
