Book Description
Donald was at an auction I just happened upon one day. I had already retired, bought my land and the animals I wanted to have in my golden years. What caught my attention to Donald was he had the dark mark of a cross on his back. Not every donkey has this! I knew I had to have him so brought him home to my menagerie. As soon as he stepped off the trailer he high-tailed it over to my chickens, geese and ducks, scaring the feathers off their backs. After many trials and tribulations we finally got on the right track. Soon after Donald became the guardian to all the animals on my land, watching over all of them like a mamma watches over her babies. This is his story of all the wonderful blessed things he contributed to in our lives......

The Donkeys
Author: Alan Clark
Publisher: Random House
ISBN: 1448104025
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 234
Book Description
The landmark exposé of incompetent leadership on the Western Front - why the British troops were lions led by donkeys On 26 September 1915, twelve British battalions – a strength of almost 10,000 men – were ordered to attack German positions in France. In the three-and-a-half hours of the battle, they sustained 8,246 casualties. The Germans suffered no casualties at all. Why did the British Army fail so spectacularly? What can be said of the leadership of generals? And most importantly, could it have all been prevented? In The Donkeys, eminent military historian Alan Clark scrutinises the major battles of that fateful year and casts a steady and revealing light on those in High Command - French, Rawlinson, Watson and Haig among them - whose orders resulted in the virtual destruction of the old professional British Army. Clark paints a vivid and convincing picture of how brave soldiers, the lions, were essentially sent to their deaths by incompetent and indifferent officers – the donkeys. ‘An eloquent and painful book... Clark leaves the impression that vanity and stupidity were the main ingredients of the massacres of 1915. He writes searingly and unforgettably’ Evening Standard

From the bestselling author of Born to Run, a heartwarming story about training a rescue donkey to run one of the most challenging races in America, and, in the process, discovering the life-changing power of the human-animal connection. "A delight, full of heart and hijinks and humor." —John Grogan, author of Marley & Me: Life and Love with the World's Worst Dog When Christopher McDougall decided to adopt a donkey in dire straits, he had no idea what he was getting himself into.

Burro racing, a unique type of competition in which humans and donkeys run side by side over mountains and through streams, would be exactly the challenge Sherman and Chris needed.
