Hardback. Condición: Good. There are children?s books about friendly rabbits, adventurous bears and the occasional dragon with surprisingly good manners. Lone Bull?s Horse Raid takes a rather different approach, transporting readers into the rich storytelling traditions of the Native American Plains, where courage, skill and determination mattered rather more than whether you?d remembered your sandwiches. Paul and Dorothy Goble craft a tale that feels both timeless and deeply rooted in the culture that inspired it. The story follows Lone Bull, a young warrior determined to prove himself by undertaking one of the most daring challenges imaginable: stealing horses from a rival tribe. To modern ears, this may sound like an unusual career ambition, but within the traditions of the Plains peoples, horse raiding was often regarded as an act of extraordinary bravery, demanding intelligence, patience and nerve rather than simple recklessness. Success brought honour; failure generally involved running extremely fast. The irony is quietly delightful. Modern adventure stories often celebrate ever larger explosions and increasingly improbable heroes. Here, true courage lies in planning carefully, respecting tradition and understanding exactly when not to make a noise. Sometimes the greatest adventure isn?t defeating an army?it?s persuading several highly valuable horses to leave without alerting absolutely everybody nearby. Paul Goble became renowned for his respectful retelling of Native American legends and historical stories, accompanied by his unmistakable illustrations inspired by traditional Plains art. His artwork is instantly recognisable: bold, elegant and filled with vibrant patterns that capture both movement and symbolism. Every page feels carefully composed, inviting readers to linger over the details as much as the story itself. What makes Lone Bull?s Horse Raid particularly engaging is that it doesn?t simply tell an exciting tale?it quietly introduces readers to another culture?s values and traditions. Honour, patience, family, courage and respect for the natural world are woven naturally into the narrative, allowing the story to educate without ever sounding like a lesson. It?s history, folklore and adventure working together in perfect balance. Published in 1973, the book reflects a period when beautifully illustrated children?s books were produced with remarkable care and craftsmanship. Long before tablets, streaming services and endless digital distractions, stories like this encouraged young readers to travel through imagination alone. It remains a reminder that the most memorable adventures often begin with nothing more than ink, paper and an exceptionally gifted storyteller. There is also something wonderfully universal beneath the historical setting. Every generation has young people eager to prove themselves, uncertain of their place in the world and determined to earn respect through their own actions. Lone Bull?s journey may unfold on the Great Plains, but the emotions behind it remain instantly recognisable to readers of any age. And yes, the title promises a horse raid, but don?t expect a Hollywood-style cavalry charge accompanied by dramatic orchestral music. Real courage is often quieter than that. Besides, horses are famously uncooperative participants in carefully planned operations and have an uncanny talent for ruining stealth missions at precisely the wrong moment. Some things, thankfully, never change. This Good condition copy, offered by Crappy Old Books , has clearly enjoyed being read over the years but remains in thoroughly respectable shape for its next adventure. It bears the honest signs of careful use while retaining all the charm of Goble?s magnificent illustrations and storytelling. No horses have escaped from between the pages, no campfires have singed the binding, and thankfully the only raid you?ll be undertaking is stealing a quiet hour to enjoy one of the most distinctive illustrated storytellers of his generation.…
