The son of an Olympic show jumper, Wofford and his siblings all found themselves pursuing a "riding life"-one of reward and growth, of challenge and disappointment, but mostly of learning to understand and work with a complex animal as an athletic partner and friend. Over the years Wofford developed as an international competitor, successful coach, and sought-after commentator. Known for his wit, irreverence, and whip-smart observations on the sport and its participants, as well as the state of the "outside" world, his magazine columns were as legendary as his performances in the saddle. Now Wofford brings his immense talent for telling tales-all of them (mostly) true-to the page in this incredibly entertaining book"-- $c Provided by publisher. 541 $d 20221014. 600 1 $a Wofford, James C., $d 1944- 650 $a Horsemen and horsewomen $z United States $v Biography. 650 $a Horse trainers $z United States $v Biography. 650 $a Olympic athletes $z United States $v Biography. 941 $a 1 952 $l VXPE964 $d 20230427010704.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=D6A0CA38E4C011EDA115288A46ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
