Christopher Columbus brought some cattle with him when he discovered the New World, and some of them escaped and ran wild as early as 1493. They ran wild on the Texas plains and multiplied for about four centuries. They were massive herds by the time that Jim and his team of cowboys discovered them and started trail breaking them to herd them north to Abilene. A team of cowboys who were veterans of the Civil War forms up and decides to go to West Texas to gather some wild horses. They do so but notice the massive herds of wild longhorn cattle roaming the range. After saddle breaking the horses, they decide to go round up a herd of wild cattle, trail break them, and drive them to market up at Abilene.

Horses Came First, Second and Last by Jack Le Goff Pdf
With an astounding eighteen medals in eight international championships and team gold medals at the Olympic Games in 1976 and 1984, Jack Le Goff created the standard by which modern–day equestrian teams are measured. But Le Goff's techniques could be unforgiving–tough, brutal, and abrasive–earning him critics as well as converts. In this, his autobiography, Le Goff tells the whole story, from impoverished beginnings in Morocco, to the tragic death of his father, to his successes as a competitive equestrian. Readers will enjoy a behind-the-scenes look at the inner workings of high–level international equestrian sport, as well as an entire section devoted to Le Goff's much admired and extremely successful training philosophy.
