Full of Yorkshire humour, this warm debut follows a year in the life of a trainee farrier whose training proves to be a baptism of fire - perfect for fans of James Herriott and The Shepherd's Life. When Will - soon unwillingly christened 'Posh Lad' - starts a years' apprenticeship with Stanley Lampitt, he expects horses, fresh air and a solid training in forge-work. He's not quite prepared for Stanley's method of teaching, though. How can you learn when your boss is constantly insulting and trying to maim you? But this unique approach teaches Will a whole lot more than what it is to be a good farrier, including how not to woo a girl and how to avoid being bitten by a psychopathic Jack Russell. Will's journey to fully fledged farrier is filled with many trials and a few tribulations but, surrounded by horses and the beautiful Yorkshire Dales, he discovers a life that could make him very happy indeed - and he might just find love along the way ...
