In the heart of the Swiss Alps stand the three majestic peaks of the Bernese Oberland, Europe's most famous mountain range. The highest, at 13,638 feet, is the Jungfrau. Next is the Mönch, at 13,465 feet. But it is the smallest, the Eiger, rising 13,038 feet above sea level, that is by far the deadliest.

I never thought I’d write a book like this, but then again, I never thought I’d end up naked in the woods with a Bible in one hand and marshmallow goo on the other. Life’s funny that way. Jesus has a way of leading us down trails we’d never think to hike, and sometimes, those trails involve a lot less clothing than most folks are used to. Now, before you go clutching your pearls or spitting out your coffee, let me just say this plain and clear—I love Jesus with my whole heart. He died on the cross for my sins, rose again, and saved my soul. I believe in the Bible, the whole thing,...

When Linda Kohanov wrote The Tao of Equus over twenty years ago, she posed questions that few were asking: Do horses make choices? How do they seem to know what people are thinking and feeling? Are horses spiritual beings? What do they have to teach people? Why are women so attracted to horses? The answers, detailed in this extraordinary chronicle that synthesizes science, behavioral research, and personal insight, transformed how we think about one of humanity's oldest companions and established Kohanov at the vanguard of the emerging field of animal-assisted learning/therapy.

One afternoon many years ago, James Rebanks met an old woman on a remote Norwegian island. She lived and worked alone on a tiny rocky outcrop, caring for wild Eider ducks and gathering their down.

Back at home, Rebanks couldn’t stop thinking about the woman on the rocks. She was fierce and otherworldly—and yet strangely familiar.
