Reviews
"...a fantastic story of perseverance that is historical and deeply personal..." -- Cameron Kennedy Life, Red Deer Advocate, 28th June 2006., "Ride the Rising Wind is not nostalgia, however. The book is brave and forward looking as an example of a young woman trusting in tomorrow. ...There's a big spirit in this...[it] is a work to treasure." -- Veronica Ross, The Record, Canada, June 17th 2006.
Synopsis
In May 1949, at the age of twenty, Barbara Kingscote left her farm in Mascouche, Quebec, and set out for the Pacific Ocean on horseback. Barbara and her equine companion Zazy reached the West Coast just over a year later, after travelling 4 miles and discovering the heart of this great country. Ride the Rising Wind reveals Canada through the fresh eyes of a brave young woman discovering both herself and her country on the journey of a lifetime., In May 1949#44; at the age of twenty#44; Barbara Kingscote left her farm in Mascouche#44; Quebec#44; and set out for the Pacific Ocean on horseback#46; Barbara and her equine companion Zazy reached the West Coast just over a year later#44; after travelling 4#44000 miles and discovering the heart of this great country#46; Ride the Rising Wind reveals Canada through the fresh eyes of a brave young woman discovering both herself and her country on the journey of a lifetime#46;
