Read the excerpts from The Land.

"He ride good's he look, Mister Edward?"

"He's a fine riding horse, all right," said my daddy, "but he needs training. I figure he gets that training, he could be the best around."

"Yes, suh," said Willie Thomas, stroking the stallion's forehead. "He sure got a good look to him, I know that!"

"Now, Willie," said my daddy, "I expect you to take mighty good care of this horse. I'm depending on Ghost Wind to win me more than a few races by the coming year, and I want him in the best condition possible."

It wasn't until the next day I saw Mitchell again. "You get a whippin' for ridin' that stallion?" he asked as I made my way through the woods toward the creek.

I shook my head. "No. Just can't ride Ghost Wind anymore."

Mitchell glanced sideways at me, almost as if he felt bad about my predicament. "That bad as a whippin'?"

"Worse."
