New Books to Feature Country Music Stars
NASHVILLE - Lisa Wysocky's newest book, Horse Country: A
Celebration of Country Music and the Love of Horses will be
published October 14 by The Lyons Press. In this stunning 224
page, hardcover, four-color book, two subjects that millions keep
close to their hearts are finally brought together: country music and
horses. Charmingly designed and aptly named, Horse Country
visits twenty-seven of country's biggest stars, inviting readers into
the private world they share with some of their closest friends--their
beloved horses.
A few of the stars featured in Horse Country include George Jones,
Charlie Daniels, Lynn Anderson, Tanya Tucker, Brad Paisley, Willie
Nelson, Heidi Newfield, Hal Ketchum, Chris Cagle, Eddie
Montgomery, and Todd Fritsch. The stories are funny, touching, and
uplifting. Each chapter includes personal photos of the artist with
his or her horse, as well as photos of the star who shares the story.
Above all, readers learn how horses have changed the lives of
country music artists for the better.
With heartwarming stories and full-color photos throughout, set in a
must-have four-color design, this gorgeous book will be treasured
by--and will make an ideal gift for--all who love horses and have a
hankering for country music.
