    About this audiobook

    Last Chance Mustang is the story of Samson, a formerly free-roaming, still wild-at-heart American mustang that was plucked from his mountainous Nevada home and thrown into the domestic horse world where he was brutalized and victimized.

    After years of abuse, Samson had evolved into a hateful and hated, maladjusted beast until the day he found his way to a rural Illinois farm, an ill-equipped owner, and one last chance. Mitch Bornstein's task was to tame the violent beast whose best defense had become offense. He had twenty years of experience fixing unfixable horses, but Samson would be his greatest challenge. Through the pair's many struggles and countless battles, Samson would teach Mitch about the true power of hope, friendship, redemption and the inspiring mettle of the forever wild and free American mustang.

    Author

    Mitchell Bornstein

    At the age of six, Mitchell Bornstein jumped atop his first horse, and in the thirty-eight years since, he has pursued his life’s dream of working with damaged, abused, and difficult horses. College, law school, and nineteen years as a practicing attorney have not stood in the way as Mitchell has followed his passion and one true calling: to save the horses that no one else will. From Illinois to Indiana, Wisconsin to Iowa, Mitchell has travelled the Midwest and entered stalls that others won’t and mounted steeds that others can’t. Practicing what he has termed "command and control horsemanship," Mitchell handles each of his horses with a firm yet respectful approach. For Mitchell, there is no such thing as a bad horse or a steed beyond repair. Mitch lives and works in Wheeling, Illinois.

      Not a bad book, but a lot of really outdated and one sided information about the current BLM processes and circumstances around the round ups. There’s a lot more to the situation than the author goes in to, and the information he presents is very biased. It would have been a nice read if it were just about his training journey with the horse.
    • 5/5
      A wonderful book. The story of Samson and Mitchell is truly touching, and is enhanced by the history of mustangs throughout the book. It's touching, inspirational and educational, all rolled into one book about a very special bond between a very special horse and human.
