Kentucky, 1850. An enslaved groom named Jarret and a bay foal forge a bond of understanding that will carry the horse to record-setting victories across the South. When the nation erupts in civil war, an itinerant young artist who has made his name on paintings of the racehorse takes up arms for the Union. On a perilous night, he reunites with the stallion and his groom, very far from the glamor of any racetrack.

Skilled Storytelling

As a filmmaker I thoroughly enjoyed the way she seamlessly wove the stories together using the horse and paintings as her pattern.

After Tova Sullivan’s husband died, she began working the night shift at the Sowell Bay Aquarium, mopping floors and tidying up. Keeping busy has always helped her cope, which she’s been doing since her eighteen-year-old son, Erik, mysteriously vanished on a boat in Puget Sound over thirty years ago. Tova becomes acquainted with curmudgeonly Marcellus, a giant Pacific octopus living at the aquarium. Marcellus knows more than anyone can imagine but wouldn’t dream of lifting one of his eight arms for his human captors—until he forms a remarkable friendship with Tova.

In August of 1914, the British ship Endurance set sail for the South Atlantic. In October 1915, still half a continent away from its intended base, the ship was trapped, then crushed in the ice. For five months, Sir Ernest Shackleton and his men, drifting on ice packs, were castaways in one of the most savage regions of the world. Lansing describes how the men survived a 1,000-mile voyage in an open boat across the stormiest ocean on the globe and an overland trek through forbidding glaciers and mountains.

Thoughtful asset for seniors.
Revisado: 01-04-22
As a senior, I’ve found Frederick’s book to be a thought provoking asset that could easily work for other seniors regarding quality of life issues, for now and for the future. What struck me about Right Place, Right Time was the extensive resource it is for seniors to help make thoughtful, intentional choices about our future rather than just letting things happen to/for us haphazardly. I actually bought the book, because, at age 80, I wanted to see if the choices I’ve made regarding my final commitment to place and community would hold up to Frederick’s research and understanding of Right Place, Right Time. Well, I got lucky… they indeed are! The book was a fascinating read and has lead me to further pondering about my own health, happiness, and, with gratitude, to know where I am is where I’ve chosen to live, ‘happily ever after!’

This is one of THE best books I’ve ever listened to! For the artist it puts flesh on the process and a kick in the but for the journey! For the “non artist” it’s training wheels for the adventure! Having the author read the story is a huge plus!! And the story is any and everything you want it to be!!!

The final novel from a great American storyteller. Donal Cameron is being raised by his grandmother, the cook at the legendary Double W ranch in Ivan Doig's beloved Two Medicine Country of the Montana Rockies, a landscape that gives full rein to an 11-year-old's imagination. But when Gram has to have surgery for "female trouble" in the summer of 1951, all she can think to do is to ship Donal off to her sister in faraway Manitowoc, Wisconsin.
