Annotation

After noticing that his autistic son showed signs of improvement when they rode a neighbor's horse together, travel writer Rupert Isaacson decided to seek therapeutic treatment for the boy in Mongolia, among the wild horses and shamanistic healers. The story that emerges is filled with thrilling adventure, medical discovery, and hopeful insight, as Isaacson literally climbs mountains and crosses seas to help his beloved son.

When his son Rowan was diagnosed with autism, Rupert Isaacson was devastated, afraid he might never be able to communicate with his child. But when Isaacson, a lifelong horseman, rode their neighbor's horse with Rowan, Rowan improved immeasurably. He was struck with a crazy idea: why not take Rowan to Mongolia, the one place in the world where horses and shamanic healing intersected?
THE HORSE BOY is the dramatic and heartwarming story of that impossible adventure. In Mongolia, the family found undreamed of landscapes and people, unbearable setbacks, and advances beyond their wildest dreams. This is a deeply moving, truly one-of-a-kind story--of a family willing to go to the ends of the earth to help their son, and of a boy learning to connect with the world for the first time.
