This unique nature book invites you into a world seldom experienced by humans through breathtaking imagery of wild horses on the open plains. In addition, author Chad Hanson delves into current research and lays out the myriad mind-body benefits ofspending time in natural spaces. "Try this" sidebars throughout offer simple ways to get outside, practice mindfulness, and discover more wonder in your every day, no matter where you live. Handsomely designed to evoke the allure of the West and brimming with images that range from austere to heartwarming to jubilant, this transporting book will appeal to animal and nature lovers, photography enthusiasts, and anyone interested in improving their well-being through time spent outdoors. CHAD HANSON divides his time between Casper, Wyoming and the Red Feather Lakes region of Colorado. He teaches in the areas of sociology and religion at Casper College, he is a member of the Higher Learning Commission's (HLC) Peer Review Corps, and he has served as a partner in the National Endowment for the Humanities' research program.

She has been outwardly active, collaborating with scientific research institutions as well as policy-focused groups. She published the book Born To Rewild: Triumphs of a Now Fearless Woman, which tells of her efforts to protect wild horses endangered by bureaucratic struggles, and of her connections with American Indian groups also focused on protecting keystone American species. She actively participates in the Native Congress of American Indians and led the push for rewilding-focused language in the American 2020 Interior Appropriations budget bill. REWILDING AMERICA NOW works with tribal nations, lobbyists, farmers, and other groups to protect natural habitat for species including wild horses, beavers, and bison, with projects in Idaho, North Dakota, and the Standing Rock Reservation. They push to promote rewilding and habitat protection through direct boots-on-the-ground work, impact litigation, public outreach and education, and more.
