Your ability to tell the story of the wild mustang is amazing. I haven’t been able to get the book off my mind! You have such a way of grabbing the reader and not letting go!!!”
Laura Leigh wrote, “Somedays this battle has you saying ‘what am I doing? beating my head against this wall just hurts.’ But then you see something like this book and you can say ‘This is why I engage this insanity.’ To see that people like you have paid attention… and how deeply this has touched you and to know that sweet mare that I saw so brutally taken from her home has found a place of understanding in this craziness… well all I can say is ‘Thank you.'”

From Joe Camp…
It’s been a long time coming. I began this book five years ago. We had only been horse owners for a year and a half and I had been asking a lot of questions, apparently too loudly too often, about how our new horses should be kept and cared for… and what we could learn by looking to the horses in the wild.
“Not a thing,” I was told, over and over again. “The domestic horse and the horse in the wild are not even the same species anymore.”
That made no sense to me. I remembered a teacher I once had who taught me to make decisions based upon knowledge and wisdom, not hearsay. So we began a new exploration, a new journey, once again charging off into uncharted waters… until we were suddenly stopped cold in our tracks and the book went on the shelf for almost three years. A very important three years, it turned out, that uncovered knowledge and wisdom we didn’t even know we were missing, and conclusions we could never have come to three years earlier. These discoveries astounded us, exhilarated us. And made us better. I hope that the words in this book have melted into the folds of what was being done, not what is being said. For that is their purpose. To create the experience for you that you might live it with us, do it with us. Feel it with us.
And now those words are yours. We hope you’ll find them worthy, and share them often.

“I read until late last night, and although I’m just a short way into the story, this is my thinking. I believe your body of work, starting with ‘Soul’, has been leading to this book. Your engaging writing style, not just about horses in general but about a specific herd, specific horses you brought into your life, is lovely. I believe Born Wild will prove to be another ‘Black Beauty’, which in that time, awakened people to the needs of horses and swept the country/world. We need that awakening again; thank you for doing that.” – Ruella Yates
“I just finished reading “Born Wild” by Joe Camp. The American government is supposed to be protecting our wild horses, but corruption abounds, and instead this administration is spending millions of tax payer’s money to decimate them. In “Born Wild” these facts are eloquently interwoven into a moving and enlightening love story about horses; both wild and domestic. Everyone should read this book. Thank you to Joe and Kathleen Camp for shining the light on such an important subject in such a beautiful way.” – Melanie Foster-Bowles
“This book was a joy to read, even if it had me sometimes cursing, sometimes weeping. The cursing and the weeping were WITH Joe Camp, not at him. He is an excellent storyteller who has spoken up for the horse, again. This Kindle version is cram packed with live links for extending the learning. I hope ten million people will read it. And I hope each of them will take some actions on behalf of the horse. Take the BLM to task, get wild horses protected in the WILD once and for all. Take a fresh look at their relationship with domestic horses, and how those horses are cared for.” – Terry Jenkins
“Be prepared…when you read Born Wild…to run the gamut of every human emotion known to man! You get so intent, so hooked into their story, it’s like sitting on the back porch, mason jar of red wine in hand, listening to Joe and Kathleen word for word. Born Wild is another massive step forward in spreading the word on the plight of our beautiful American wild mustangs and again, world wide, how important it is to care for our domestic equine friends “as mother nature intended’. Thank you Joe and Kathleen! You are excellent teachers! =-)” – Deb Long
“Couldn’t wait to get “Born Wild” electronically and hated to stop reading it long enough to tell you it’s another wonderful work. Malachi continues to touch so many. Thanks so much for your and Kathleen’s magical efforts in behalf of the Horse! Wishing it could go on and on!” – Ron Tatus
“This is a very special book and may very well be the tipping point needed for the horses of the world to get a better deal. Thank you Joe Camp.” – Maureen Lynch Vanderstad
“Just had Born Wild delivered to my kindle – – can’t wait to start reading it . . I’ve been around horses pretty much my entire life . . I learned more from “The Soul of a Horse” than any other horse book I’ve ever read.” – Jim Paul Blasdel
