"Tails" of a Suburban Cowgirl by Debra SpeakesLulu.com"Tails" of a Suburban Cowgirl is the true story of a little girl growing up in the suburbs of Phoenix, Arizona, with a deep love of horses and a family who couldn't care less about them. Yet over the years, she not only achieved her dream of having horses while still living in the city, but she eventually found her way to country living in a town sympathetic to her love of horses. This wonderful book is a must-read for any would-be cowgirl or cowboy stuck living in the city but who dreams of living the cowboy life. It's also a trip down memory lane for others who traveled the same path, achieving the dream despite the numerous obstacles that arise on the unlikely journey from stick horses to stock horses, from model horses to Morgan horses, from stuffed ponies to cow ponies. For bulk purchases, please contact the author at author@suburbancowgirl.com. "Tails" of a Suburban Cowgirl by Debra SpeakesShe loved horses as a child. As an adult, she found ways to have them in her life. This is the true story of that journey from stick horses to stock horses, as the author battles the never-ending march of developers, gobbling up horse-friendly property and replacing it with crackerbox tract homes while she tries to raise and train horses with only books and magazines for guides. She finally finds her way to the horse-friendly town of Norco, where bridle paths line the roads, hitching rails and water troughs are in front of the stores, and where the equine count is higher than the human census. These are the adventures and misadventures you will relate to, if you have followed this path, or be inspired by, if you, too, are a suburban cowgirl (or cowboy) craving a horsey life that you think is unattainable.
