Hy Burstein is a man with a passion, a passion for horseback riding which he has passed on to his family, and which comes alive in the pages of his story. A successful businessman, Hy takes his family on horseback adventures throughout the United States, Europe and the Middle East, spending a great deal of time in Israel, where his wife, the former Miss Israel, grew up. The full color, and black and white photographs throughout this travelog highlight the breath-taking landscapes the author encounters as he travels off the beaten track. But not all his adventures are beautiful. Hy encounter rednecks and anti-Semites who challenge him with their bigotry and hatred. Instead of moving on, Hy defends himself and reveals his pride in his religion and his people.
