Across the country he gained a reputation as a horse tamer, and in 1856 he published this little book on the subject. In 1857, Rarey went to England, where he made his fame and fortune. He returned to America in1860 bringing Cruiser, a notorious maniac that he had tamed. At the age of thirty-nine, Rarey died, having made his name as one of the greatest horse trainers in American history.
