Biografische Anmerkung
Klappentext

Bradford Smith is an internationally known author, engineer, and teacher living in Southern California with writing partner & wife Nancy Raven Smith, who is an award-winning screenwriter and novelist. Co-collaborator & daughter, Lynn Raven, is an award-winning writer and former entertainment publicist living at Whimsey Hill 2 in Virginia. For over twenty years, Brad, Nancy, and their two daughters rescued animals and retrained racehorses for second careers and then found them new homes.



The hu-amorous true story of an animal-phobic, city robotics engineer who learns too late that his new bride's dream is to have a farm where she can rescue ex-racehorses. When the newlyweds take a Meyers-Briggs Personality Test for fun, it tells them that their marriage is doomed. There is only one problem: they took the test after the wedding.

So whether he's chasing a cow named Pork Chop through the woods, getting locked in a tack room by the family pony, being snubbed by his wife's favorite dog, or unsuccessfully trying to modernize their barn using the latest technology, the odds are already stacked against him. It seems like everything on four legs is out to get him. Will the animals prove Meyers-Briggs right?

Read now and enjoy the multi-award winning stories of one man's journey along the bumpy road from his urban robotics lab to his new life on a rural Virginia farm.

"Animals can and do make our lives better. This is my kind of book." - Bret Witter, #1 New York Times bestselling co-author of Dewey [the Library Cat]"
