Horse Woman

Lee's voice conveys something that all of us horsewomen know, that a horse is not just a horse, but the embodiment of our hopes, dreams, fears, failures and accomplishments. I am a student of her work and grateful to call her a friend. - Vanessa Mannix, Canadian Equestrian Team Member Full of wit and wisdom, equine and people truths, this is a must-read, must-use book. Highly recommended, it will definitely be part of my tack room collection. - Julie Moorcroft, 2016 World Champion, Western Dressage A fabulous book, giving us real insight into the extraordinary life of a true horsewoman. - Susan Oakes, World Record Holder in Sidesaddle High Jumping Part Will Rogers, part Emily Post, Lee has the uncanny ability to share from the horse's perspective. She inspires us to be more aware and in tune with our horse partners ... and quite possibly, to be better people because of it. - Gary Rempel, Canadian Finals Rodeo and Wrangler National Finals Rodeo Pickup Man The importance of mentors and continual learning throughout Lee's book struck true to me. This is a must in my world. It is important to watch and listen to other horsemen and women ... and to learn from each horse we have the honour to step across. - John Swales, 2020 and 2017 National Reined Cow Horse Association World's Greatest Horseman Lee McLean is a friend and colleague who I consider to be one of the most knowledgeable women in the horse world today. She is authentic and common sense prevails, as you will come to understand, while reading Horse Woman. - Cub Wright, 2008 Canadian Open Cutting Champion Lee doesn't just offer practical advice in Horse Woman. She takes her readers inside the minds of those who pursue deeper understanding of the animals they love. This book is destined to become a classic. I wish I'd had a copy when I was a girl ... It's a comfort, like having a friend talking to you, saying what you're maybe too embarrassed, or to unsure, to ask. - Adrian 'Buckaroogirl' Brannan, Author and Singer-Songwriter Bound within these pages, Lee's knowledge and experience gathered over a lifetime is a must-read for anyone interested in the life of a deeply-rooted horse woman. Delivered in her own brilliant style of storytelling, infused with decades of wisdom, the authenticity of this book is a complete refresh in the digital world today. - Shannon Lawlor, Equine Artist Insightful, witty, heartfelt and filled with nuggets of horsemanship advice garnered from plenty of wet saddle blankets. This Horse Woman will quickly become the friend you want to share a pot of coffee with and chat horses all day. - Robyn Duplisea, Publisher, Show Horse Today There are many books about the art of riding or the bond between equines and humans, but perhaps none are so passionately written. A vivid storyteller and a keeper of western heritage, this Horse Woman offers hope to the rest of us who, like so many others, can find ourselves intimidated by horses and the culture with which they are aligned. - Jenn Webster, Publisher, Western Horse Review
