All for the Love of Horses

About the Book

This story began in a small community on rural Long Island, continued to Europe, and returned to the United States to the place that was her dream. It was always author Patricia Dammier’s vision to be able to look outside and see her beloved horses, to not have to worry about finding the next boarding stable. In All for the Love of Horses, she shares her story about all the wonderful animals and people that comprise more than thirty-five years of traveling through Europe to return to her farm in the United States. Dammier offers a reflective review of the cheerful and funny stories through a historical lens. The stories recount the thoughtfulness and generosity of others as she pursues her dream. The included photographs convey the various light-hearted moments of Dammier’s journey but also document the dedication it takes to accomplish any difficult skill or goal.
