Premier Equestrian CEO Mark Neihart Pens and Publishes The Horse Angels

Premier Equestrian CEO Mark Neihart Pens and Publishes The Horse Angels

Sandy, Utah (June 11, 2014) - Mark Neihart loves horses. More than that, he’s fascinated with the age-old relationship between man and horse. As the CEO of Premier Equestrian, he’s surrounded by the horse culture, but he’s not just in the business. It’s much deeper and more personal.

Mark started writing his book in 2010, and originally it detailed the history of mankind and horses, the premise being that man progressed through the ages on the back of a horse.
“I finished it, and it was pretty boring,” Neihart admits. “It was more like a dull documentary. Then in 2011, a friend suggested I write a dramatic story using the factual information as the core of the story. Once my editor got involved we ditched all the remaining boring parts. It turned from a documentary into straight fiction. It’s a story which has something for everyone: fast moving action, romance, government corruption, and, of course, horses.”

What Neihart kept as the central theme in his book was the relationship between horse and man. “It’s what motivates many of the characters. A hundred and fifty years ago it was the horse pulling the cart. Today, we see the Chevy Suburban pulling the horse within the trailer. This is the perfect symbol of our collective love and appreciation of the horse as well as an apt symbol of our gratitude.” That ancient bond is the core of The Horse Angels, a story about an endangered herd of wild horses and the people sent to protect them. 

A brief synopsis; News reporter Anne Harper is called to investigate rumors of a dwindling herd of mustangs. She takes her daughter Samantha and heads up to the Angel Ridge horse rescue ranch where the two get caught up in a decades-old family feud. She meets Nolan Powell, a quiet, brooding horsemen with a secret. The drama unfolds as true nature of the relationship between horse and man is revealed. Fast paced, compelling, and heartfelt. The Horse Angels is a book for every horse lover.

Neihart enjoyed dramatizing the relationship people enjoy with their horses. He depicts this as a mystical, almost magical element in The Horse Angels. He says he based it on the observations he made watching horsemen like Walter Zettl and Pat Parelli. 

“When my company was making the video series, A Matter of Trust, about Walter Zettl, I followed him around for five years, observing him,” says Neihart. “His classical dressage technique utilizes the horse’s natural abilities. I learned how important it is to always be soft, kind, with no force.  Through Walter, I met Pat and Linda Parelli and my education continued. The Parelli’s are leaders in the Natural Horsemanship movement. They showed me how respect for the horse and seeing things from his point of view is the basis of all good training. There were my beginnings; many other world-class horse trainers have come into my life since then. I have been very fortunate.”

As CEO of Premier Equestrian, Neihart gets to live this philosophy everyday. “Premier Equestrian was built around our primary passion for loving, training, and riding our horses,” says Neihart. “Every product we sell is measured against this passion for safety, practicality, and the well being of the horse.”

Mark and Heidi-Zorn Neihart live in Granite, Utah with their three horses, Sting, Serrano, and Isabella. Horses are central to their lives, both professionally and personally.

Book cover unveiled! - The Horse Angels

This is the working cover for the book. Soon I will tell the secrets behind the symbol and why it matters within the story.


The Book is almost ready for publishing


It has been a little over three years since I started The Horse Angels. Today I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. The manuscript has been edited by Becky "The Knife" Harding, it has been reviewed by 20 or so of my closest advisors, survived a final edit, and now resides with the professional proof reader Ken Passarella. The cover art is moving forward and zoo the whole thing will be sent to the designer for final layout. YAY!

Excerpt from The Horse Angels, Chapter 14 - Mark Neihart


   Excerpt from The Horse Angels, Chapter 14 

- Mark Neihart


Once the ranching business began in the western United States, conflict with the wild horse herds was a sure bet. It is the inevitable clash of economy versus nature. Now, as with every little thing, the issue has degenerated into frozen political polar opposites with one side claiming every attempt to manage the wild herds is an analog of Nazi death camps and the other side claiming that wild horses are ruining the range, over grazing, and putting ranchers out of business. Either argument is nothing more than wild-eyed hyperbole. The real truth lies in the middle.

  While it is true that the United States Federal Government is legally tasked with managing the wild horses as part of the wildlife management policies of the BLM, the tragic part of the story is that wild horses are not legally considered a ‘native species’. They are considered to be invasive and foreign. The political story is that horses died out in North America some 10,000 years ago and were brought back by the Spanish. While there is some evidence that disproves this assertion it still remains the view widely held by science and politicians.

 The fact remains that horses were a part of ancient North America, and the horse developed and adapted to the various rangelands occurring across the continent. The horse is as natural to our landscape as the deer, antelope, rabbit, or any number of other mammals living wildly in nature.

  But this isn’t a story about wild horses. No, this is a story about man and horse. More pointedly about the debt that man owes the horse. We have traveled to the moon and beyond; this would not have happened without our trusted evolutionary partner, the horse. We have perfected our techniques of food production, feeding billions of people every day. This happened because of our relationship with horse. Every part of the miraculous lives we are privileged to live has been made possible because of the horse. The horse has been our engine to prosperity, for thousands of years. From the ancient Scythian horsemen to our modern aged pioneers man has endured and grown because of our equine partners. 

  Now that our technology has replaced the horse is it right to simply forget the animal and what it has done for our cause? Is it right to simply cast aside the horse like an empty, spent cartridge because it is of no use to us anymore? To do so would be supremely selfish and ungrateful. I say we need to hold the horse in high esteem, to uphold our human values and recognize our indebtedness. We owe the horse something that cannot be repaid, by any means. Simply to understand this and hold in our hearts and minds a respect and reverence for our horses is all we can do and it will be enough.

 As our technology grows it is easy to forget the past. It is easy to shed off the history and reasons we live like we do. When it comes to the horse we should never forget. There are many, many people who understand this and have taken it upon themselves to educate us and to grow our awareness of the horse. These people I call the Horse Angels, those that spend their lives with and around horses, living that bond, caring for their animals and teaching other people to do the same. These people understand the debt we, as humans, owe the horse. These people are the ones remembering and doing the work. Teaching us the truth about the horse’s gentle nature and their willing spirits that remain to this day. These are the true Horse Angels.
