reviewed on + 625 more book reviews


From the distant, windswept plains of Siberia has come the story of a real horse whose life history, told here by the author, will go down with "Black Beauty" and "Smoky" as one of the greatest horse stories of all time. The author, a Siberian by birth, became Jumper's master during the last war and was deeply impressed with his wisdom, courage and loyalty -- qualities which made hime a legendary figure in the Siberian army and in his native village.
