Young Saied is awed by the fierce desert raiders who have come to Africa to trade. That night, the caravan's prized mare gives birth and dies. Rather than let the orphaned foal die as well, Sheik Abdullah Ibn Mhayd buys a boy to care for her. Saied is bound to the filly by slavery and devotion. They grow together, learning the ways of the Bedouin and of war. During this bloody tribal era, Saied and Wadduda must risk their lives for each other.

Homer Davenport's own words describe his 1906 adventure to the tribes of the Anezeh, bringing from the desert the purest Arabian horses. The ancestors of many of America's Arabians come to life with humor, awe and a wealth of photographs. For anyone with Al Khamsa breeding, it's like a nostalgic trip through a treasured family album. Charles and Jeanne Craver have added the perfect touch of clarity.
