In his best-selling The Faraway Horses, we learned about how Buck Brannaman, the inspiration for The Horse Whisperer, found his calling and honed his craft. Since its publication, the book has also struck a responsive chord with non-horse owners because of the universal application of Brannaman's approach to interpersonal relationships. Believe continues to chronicle this journey. We meet people and horses with whom Brannaman works, and experience firsthand the sense of hope he helps instil in riders and, ultimately, the horses. And beyond such face-to-face encounters, people continue to contact Brannaman with stories of the successes they achieved after reading The Faraway Horses. Here is a woman who suffered an abusive childhood and marriage. After watching a Brannaman clinic, she expressed her epiphany to the trainer: "I came home a different person. Now because of you I am going to look at a young horse tomorrow, and my boys are planning the new pens they are going to build for me." Or a soldier returning from Iraq: "I received Mr. Brannaman's book in a 'care package' from home. I could never have thought how much his advice would help me in trying times.
Buck's ways were offers of humour, wisdom, and peace in a place where these things were in short supply." You see for yourself just how many untapped dreams and abilities you possess and how you can realize them. Journey with Buck Brannaman, learn from him, and be better for the voyage.
