This is a simply written story of Tonka, an ordinary New Zealand horse, and how he went from a farm-hack cum pig-hunting horse on an amazing journey halfway around the world to compete as part of a team at the World Championship Endurance Race. The story tells us about his life and that of his rider, who at the age of sixty-one, thought his chances of representing his country in any sport had long gone.
