What Readers and Critics Are Saying About Joe Camp
“Joe Camp is a master storyteller.” The New York Times
“One cannot help but be touched by Camp’s love and sympathy for animals and by his eloquence on the subject.” Michael Korda, The Washington Post
“Joe Camp is a natural when it comes to understanding how animals tick and a genius at telling us their story. His books are must-reads for those who love animals of any species.” Monty Roberts, Author of New York Times Best-seller The Man Who Listens to Horses
“Joe Camp is a gifted storyteller and the results are magical. Joe entertains, educates and empowers, baring his own soul while articulating keystone principles of a modern revolution in horsemanship.” Rick Lamb, Author and TV/Radio host “The Horse Show”
“Camp has become something of a master at telling us what can be learned from animals, in this case specifically horses, without making us realize we have been educated, and, that is, perhaps, the mark of a real teacher. The tightly written, simply designed, and powerfully drawn chapters often read like short stories that flow from the heart.” Jack L. Kennedy, The Joplin Independent
“This book is absolutely fabulous! An amazing, amazing book. You’re going to love it.” Janet Parshall’s America

“A fantastic book.” – Steve Dale – WGN Chicago
“You will never look at a horse race, or a herd of mustangs, or even the canine of dubious parentage that is lounging on your couch, the same way.” – Debra McGuire, The Las Vegas Review Journal
“Joe speaks a clear and simple truth that grabs hold of your heart.” Yvonne Welz, Editor, The Horse’s Hoof Magazine

“I wish you could hear my excitement for Joe Camp’s new book, The Soul of a Horse. It is unique, powerful, needed.” –

“Heartwarming, joyful and triumphant. A literary gem. Not just for horse lovers but for anyone who has loved any living creature.” – Cate Crismani, True Cowboy Magazine
“Joe Camp writes about horses with empathy, curiosity, and a deep regard for equine instincts and behavior. It’s a book that encourages the reader, gently, to step into the herd and learn.”- Debbie Moors, Horse & Rider
“It takes courage and a fair bit of self-confidence to contradict conventional wisdom on the care and nature of horses the way Joe Camp does in his book. But then, this isn’t the first time Camp has been proven right when it comes to animals. Through experiences both humorous and dramatic, Camp manages to create the closest attempt at a first-person perspective on the thought processes of a horse since Mr. Ed.” – David Hofstede, Cowboys and Indians
“Joe Camp takes you on an awe-inspiring adventure in his latest book. Emotionally engaging and truly heartwarming, and perfect for the entire family.” – Aubrey Rykovich – Bit And Bridle

“I got my book yesterday and hold Joe Camp responsible for my bloodshot eyes. I couldn’t put it down and morning came early!!! Joe transports me into his words.

The story of our journey with horses (to date) is told in the two books that follow: the national best seller The Soul of a Horse – Life Lessons from the Herd and its sequel Born Wild – The Soul of a Horse.
And what a story it is as two novices without a clue stumble and bumble their way through the learning process so that hopefully you won’t have to. If you haven’t read both of these books already please do because with that reading, I believe, will come not just the knowledge of discovery but the passion and the excitement to cause you to commit to your journey with horses, to do for the horse without waiver so that your relationship and experience will be with loving, happy and healthy horses who are willing partners and who never stop trying for you. Horses like ours.
