Pat's Harmony
by Page CooperIn the fall, Pat's father had promised her a chestnut colt with two white feet she'd named Harmony. But Pat's father was killed in a rodeo accident, and, over the winter, the colt had been lost in the buttes of South Dakota. Pat was advised to forget him and pick another horse for her own. But in the spring, mud-caked, starved, rickety, and "not worth the powder to shoot him," Harmony was found, and given a second chance to become the outstanding horse Pat believed he could be. This is the fictionalized story of the real show horse Harmony, the beautiful chestnut horse that Pat developed into one of the nation's outstanding jumpers and working hunters.
