New Zealand's 'Kaimanawa' wild horses caught Robin Sisley's attention in 1997 when they were mustered from the ranges and hundreds were destined for slaughter. Although inexperienced and certainly not a thrill-seeker, she was spurred by compassion and offered refuge to ten of the wild stallions.

The resulting story, Eat the Wind, is the compelling true account of a woman whose passion overcame her fears, and allowed for the most remarkable experiences.

Saving, then learning to tame the wild horses is merely the beginning of Robin's challenging yet rewarding adventure. The stallions' acute intelligence and beauty inspire her to continue taking in and training scores of wild horses, providing for all kinds of unexpected and exciting episodes.

To her delight and amazement, the Kaimanawas respond to her in surprising ways. Over time, Robin fosters an unconventional, tight, and heartfelt kinship with her adopted band of wild horses.

Humerous, tender, and inspirational, this story is chock full of struggles and setbacks, chaos and triumph, and most importantly, tenacity, trust, and love. Eat the Wind is an uplifting memoir you will never forget.
