‘Brutally honest and often grisly, One Hundred and Four Horses [...] remains a powerful story of loss, desperation and, above all, hope. More than just a memoir, [...] the story is gripping, moving and disturbing all at once.’ Horse and Hound
The gripping, true story of a family forced to leave their home, the horses they rescue and their final journey to freedom.
Victims of Robert Mugabe’s land invasions, the Retzlaffs begin an epic journey across Zimbabwe, facing eviction after eviction, trying to save the group of animals with whom they feel a deep and enduring bond – the horses.
When their neighbours flee to New Zealand, the Retzlaffs promise to look after their horses, and making similar promises to other farmers along their journey, not knowing whether they will be able to feed or save them, they amass an astonishing herd of over 300 animals. But the final journey to freedom will be arduous, and they can take only 104 horses.
Each with a different personality and story, it is not just the family who rescue the horses, but the horses who rescue the family. Grey, the silver gelding: the leader. Brutus, the untamed colt. Princess, the temperamental mare.
‘One Hundred and Four Horses’ is the story of an idyllic existence that falls apart at the seams, and a story of incredible bonds – a love of the land, the strength of a family, and of the connection between man and the most majestic of animals, the horse.
