for Joe Camp's The Soul of a Horse
April 29, 2008
Joe Camp showed us the heart and soul of a dog when he created Benji.
Now, in this engaging, emotional, and often humorous story, he deftly lures us into
the heart and soul of a horse.
New York - Shaye Areheart, publisher of the Harmony imprint of Random House has announced that the publication date for Joe Camp's new book The Soul of a Horse has been set for April 29, 2008. "This book is a riveting journey of discovery as Joe and his wife Kathleen, both novices in the horse world, navigate through unexpected, uncharted, often politically incorrect territory to reveal the mystery of a majestic creature who has survived on earth without assistance for fifty-five million years," Ms. Areheart said.

"Yes, it's a "horse" book... but really, it's so much more. This book is about relationships, choices, acceptance, trust, compromise, and love. Take the horses out of it, if you wish, and it tells stories of life lessons and teaches that the quality of life is often in the choices we make."
