Wind Drinker
by Jefferson Spivey
Jefferson Spivey set out on an adventure in 1968 that
continues today to feed the dreams of so many who feel chained to a safe
life in a single place. He saddled up a horse by the name of Mr. Sol and
began a ride from the West Coast of the United States to the East Coast.
He would learn much of people, the land, nature’s creatures and himself
during the months it took to complete that ride. That was the first
adventure. In 1984 he rode a horse named Najah from Canada to Mexico
down the Rocky Mountain Chain, and in 1986 he accepted an invitation to
SouthWest Africa (Namibia) where he and his companions rode across the
oldest desert in the world.
His book Wind Drinker gives a moving account of those rides in
addition to practical advice for those who wish to experience the
challenge of trail riding. Published by Sabertooth Press in 1999,
Dreamcatcher Books adopted the book as part of its online offerings in
2002 because of its moving message about the importance of facing one’s
dreams and challenges to become the best self possible.
