Description

In Beyond the Homestretch, Lynn Reardon shares an unlikely story. In 2002, she quit her Washington, DC–area office job and moved to rural Texas to open the racehorse adoption ranch LOPE. Since then, LOPE has helped transition more than 750 thoroughbreds into new homes. Though now the director of this high-profile organization, Reardon didn't learn to ride until she was an adult. Here she presents a vivid inside look into the world of horse racing, complete with colorful horses, jockeys, trainers, and gallop girls, beautifully depicting the insights horses can offer when we reevaluate our relationship with them.
