Wishing to escape the urban rat race, freelance writer and editor Stephanie Marohn moved to rural northern California in 1993. Life as a busy freelancer was sweet. In return for reduced rent, she fed and cared for two horses and a donkey. Her life was full. Then, more animals started to appear: a miniature horse...
a donkey, sheep, chickens, deer, and other wildlife. Each one needed sanctuary either from abuse, physical injury, or neglect.
Marohn took every animal in and gradually turned her ten-acre spread into an animal sanctuary. Each chapter of the book focuses on the story of a particular animal that became part of Marohn's life.
