In the midst of the uncertainty and chaos was born the largest equine rescue ever. Horses of the Storm is an inspiring and gripping first-hand account of how the Louisiana State University’s Equine Rescue Team saved hundreds of horses and other animals in southern Louisiana from the devastation following Hurricane Katrina.

    WHAT THE CRITICS ARE SAYING

    "What's best about this book is its affirmation of the generous nature of human beings. The people in this book gave unstintingly of their time and resources,even putting themselves in danger, to help out some friends who couldn't ask for help. It's an inspiring story."
    - Baton Rouge Advocate

    "Horses of the Storm gives a great accounting of events surrounding Hurrican Katrina. Our hats are off to the thousands of volunteers that came to the aid of the horse population in the affected areas. This book chronicles those events and tells a great story."
    - David Foley, executive director, American Association of Equine Practittioners

    "Horses of the Storm is a collection of gripping—and ultimately inspiring—first-hand accounts of dramatic rescues, failed attempts, and joyful reunions."
