While waiting for a plane one day, old Henry Dailey whiles the time by telling Alec stories of his own youth, working with his brother Bill who traveled as Professor Wm Dailey, the Great Horse Tamer and advertised that he could cure any horse of biting, kicking, balking, running away, throwing himself over backward, refusing to be shod, mounted or worked, or shying at various objects. Henry also tells of a con-man who mistreated horses into better behavior, but only temporarily, and of Bill's determination to expose him. This is the fourteenth book in the series.
