Hardbound. Condition: Good. Description: This copy is Signed by the author with a personalized note (signature is just Selma'). Dust jacket art and interior drawings by Sam Savitt. Author Selma Hudnut has never been far removed from horses; she did the horse show circuit for a half-dozen summers with one of the top jumpers on the coast, a former Olympic prospect named Billy the Kid; and has been a judge in the Hunter-jumper and hunt seat equitation division. Her first book was A Horse of Her Own. This is the story of a fourteen year old girl who visits her grandparents and immediately loses her heart to a temperamental thoroughbred horse being trained to jump. Firebird has been 'soured' on humans because of the poor training he has received in the past and this current owner seems little better. Yet the big roan responds to Brooke's love and kindness and willingly lets her care for and ride him.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. After her parents' sudden death, loneliness makes Rosemary O'Connor seek out a neighboring farm where horses are being exercised. Here she feels closer to her father, who taught her all she knew about riding and horses. Soon the owner of the farm warmly welcomes Rosemary and introduces her to other young people in a local hunt club. This leads to a summer job at the hunt stables where Rosemary finds her horse, the kind of Irish hunter she has always longed for. Of course, Dublin Jack does belong to Mr. Medford, the wealthy, stable owner, and he is almost dead when Rosemary finds him. Can she -- should she -- help him to live in spite of the stable manager's ugly threats? Although Rosemary's main concern is for Dublin Jack, she works hard at her job, which includes teaching children to ride, cleaning tack, feeding and exercising other horses, and learning to control the hounds. One night, when she is more tired than usual, disaster strikes. Rosemary wakes up in the hospital, and here she learns of new plans for the stable, for herself, and for Dublin Jack. The color and excitement of horse shows, hunting, and riding with hounds in California (where no killing of a fox is involved) pervade this story of a plucky girl who believes in not letting go of her horse once she's found him.
