Description: Illustrated in black and white by Paul Brown. The publisher's blurb reads: ''Sorrel, named for his color, is born in the spring on the great range that borders the Clearwater. His first contact with man is pleasant enough, but all too soon he is captured, only to escape with Pinto, his mate, to roam the range wild and free. But the day comes when Sorel is recaptured and his gallant spirit almost broken to the saddle and the plow. Stolen by prospectors who sell him to the Forest Rangers, Sorrel endures long years of exciting adventure and grueling toil with the Rangers. During a terrible forest fire, Sorrel, now old and broken, makes his way south through the Clearwater canyon, and back to his home range, there to live in comfort for the rest of his days.'' This is part of the Famous Horse Stories series, with the series device on the spine and front cover.
