When novice horseman Robert C. Ahl arrived on a cold, cheerless day in January to meet Wild Bill, an untamed American mustang horse pulled straight off the prairie, neither of them knew the journey that lay ahead of them. Robert was already exhausted from the trip there, and the gray skies and bitter wind only compounded his weary state. The horse was smaller and less robust than Robert had hoped and planned, and the animal's fear and apprehension about the meeting was clear from his short breaths and rapid pacing. Robert's heart welled with compassion. A commitment had been made, and he knew, then and there, that together they would move past that cold, heartless place and its steel enclosure into a unique relationship for many years to come. But there was a lot of blood, guts, and pain to wade through first. A heartfelt chronicle of a true labor of love, "Of the Gray Horse" chronicles one man's bucket list adventure...and the surprising lessons he learned along the way.
