Exploring the timeless bond between horses and women and the spiritual lessons that can be learnt from this unique relationship She Flies Without Wings singles out the qualities that draw women to horses and shows how women can explore this connection - whether they ride or not - in order to learn about themselves. Mary Midkiff, an international equestrian authority, takes women back to an ancient and sacred place. Through personal memoir, narrative and poetry, she draws us into an understanding of this unique relationship. Mirroring the progression of a woman's life, we explore a young girl's search for identity and belonging, through to the development of qualities such as compassion and power, to a growing sense of life's changing season, and, ultimately, to freedom. Simply written but beautifully woven together, this is a highly uplifting spiritual book.
