About this listen

 In his deeply personal account, Rupert Isaacson tells the amazing story of his autistic son and his transformation through the healing power of horses.

From his home in Texas to the wilds of Mongolia, we follow the Isaacson family on an epic journey on horseback - a journey that would test their love, challenge their beliefs and change their lives.

Rohan's story was told how it was, warts and all, but mostly hopeful for a freer life for him and for his parents. I have been on the Mongolian steppes and how ever briefly, ridden one of the ponies. The description resonated strongly.

the way it was

Beautifully crafted story/documentary of a healing and actual journey. Honest and genuine. A wonderful narrator who is the author. Now I’m looking forward to watching the movie on you tube.

And part of the proceeds of book sales go back to therapy support for families in need.
