My Wild Ride

What an adventure… that he never saw coming.

Frank Bell didn't grow up around horses. They found him later in life — and when they did, his world exploded open. My Wild Ride: Memoirs of a Horse Whisperer is his true story: a passionate fly-fisherman who stumbled into the quiet revolution in horsemanship and rode it from the rivers of Montana to conducting clinics and demonstrations around the globe.

Ride along as Frank:
