Half Broke Horses is Laura Ingalls Wilder for adults, as riveting and dramatic as Isak Dinesen’s Out of Africa or Beryl Markham’s West with the Night. Destined to become a classic, it will transfix readers everywhere.
“Those
old cows knew trouble was coming before we did.” So begins the story of
Lily Casey Smith, Jeannette Walls’s no-nonsense, resourceful, and
spectacularly compelling grandmother. By age six, Lily was helping her
father break horses. At fifteen, she left home to teach in a frontier
town—riding five hundred miles on her pony, alone, to get to her job.
She learned to drive a car and fly a plane. And, with her husband, Jim,
she ran a vast ranch in Arizona. She raised two children, one who is
Jeannette’s memorable mother, Rosemary Smith Walls, unforgettably
portrayed in The Glass Castle.
Lily survived tornadoes,
droughts, floods, the Great Depression, and the most heartbreaking
personal tragedy. She bristled at prejudice of all kinds—against women,
Native Americans, and anyone else who didn’t fit the mold. Rosemary
Smith Walls always told Jeannette that she was like her grandmother, and
in this true-life novel, Jeannette Walls channels that kindred spirit. Half Broke Horses is Laura Ingalls Wilder for adults, as riveting and dramatic as Isak Dinesen’s Out of Africa or Beryl Markham’s West with the Night. Destined to become a classic, it will transfix readers everywhere.
