Barbara Kingscote

This is the true story of Barbara Kingscote who, in 1949, rode her little black Arab mare Zazy from Quebec to British Columbia by herself. She was 20 years old. She started out with $100, 3 maps, a camera, camping gear, an oat bag, a rifle and her mother's salmon sandwiches. On the 4000 mile journey, young Barbara learns all she needs to know about freedom and independence while gaining a deep understanding and close bond with her marvelous companion Zazy.
