Elizabeth Letts, author of the best-selling book, "The Eighty-Dollar Champion," talks about how she discovered the great story of champion jumper Snowman and the horseman who saved him from the slaughterhouse, Harry de Leyer. Snowman is the subject of a documentary film due for release in September. Letts has a new book, due out next week, also about saving horses. "The Perfect Horse" tells how the Nazis stole priceless European stallions and set out to develop a super breed of horses, built for war. It also chronicles the men of a U.S. Army unit who carried out a secret mission at the end of World War II to save the stallions from certain death.Links:http://www.elizabethletts.com/elizabeth-letts/http://www.elizabethletts.com/the-eighty-dollar-champion-snowman-the-horse-that-inspired-a-nation/https://vimeo.com/111068304http://www.elizabethletts.com/the-perfect-horse/
