"Testimony to the healing power of wildness...a candid memoir that interweaves a trajectory of loss, pain, and hard-won serenity with a paean to wild horses."
--KIRKUS REVIEWS

Kathryn Wilder's personal story of grief, motherhood, and return to the desert entwines with the story of America's mustangs as Wilder makes a home on the Colorado Plateau, her property bordering a mustang herd. Desert Chrome illuminates these controversial creatures--their complex history in the Americas, their powerful presence on the landscape, and ways to help both horses and habitats stay wild in the arid West--and celebrates the animal nature in us all.
