In the Middle Ages, mules were used to transport goods across Britain. Strong, sturdy and able to carry a good 160lbs of weight, they made ideal walking companions – as long as you didn’t ask them to do anything they didn’t want to do! So when Hugh Thomson decides he wants to revive this ancient tradition, but with a mule who is only willing to carry sandwiches, water and a map, his father can’t quite comprehend why: “Taking a mule across England? Really? Whatever for?” Using old drovers’ roads that have largely passed into disrepair, Hugh and his trusty mule Jethro set out to travel across England, from the Lake District to the Yorkshire Moors. Along the way, they discover a landscape rich in history, and encounter the charismatic people who bring it to life.

There is no more useful or willing animal than the Mule. And perhaps there is no other animal so much abused, or so little cared for. Popular opinion of his nature has not been favorable; and he has had to plod and work through life against the prejudices of the ignorant. Still, he has been the great friend of man, in war and in peace serving him well and faithfully. If he could tell man what he most needed it would be kind treatment. We all know how much can be done to improve the condition and advance the comfort of this animal; and he is a true friend of humanity who does what he can for his benefit. My object in writing this book was to do what I could toward working out a much needed reform in the breeding, care, and treatment of these animals. Let me ask that what I have said in regard to the value of kind treatment be carefully read and followed. I have had thirty years' experience in the use of this animal, and during that time have made his nature a study. The result of that study is, that humanity as well as economy will be best served by kindness. It has indeed seemed to me that the Government might make a great saving every year by employing only such teamsters and wagon-masters as had been thoroughly instructed in the treatment and management of animals, and were in every way qualified to perform their duties properly. Indeed, it would seem only reasonable not to trust a man with a valuable team of animals, or perhaps a train, until he had been thoroughly instructed in their use, and had received a certificate of capacity from the Quartermaster's Department. If this were done, it would go far to establish a system that would check that great destruction of animal life which costs the Government so heavy a sum every year. "Harvey Riley most favors the medium-sized animals, of dark color, for general work, especially for drought purposes, but while doing so acknowledges that the Mexican mule, of higher height standard, is undoubtedly superior to anything bred in the States. He states that he has tried them both on similar conditions, and found that with the same amount of food the Mexican mule will not only keep up its condition, but do better work, and keep fresher when only halting three hours, than the American mule will with regular five-hour rests." -The Agricultural Gazette of New South Wales "I have always had a friendly feeling for the mule. He does the world's hardest work and yet is the most ill-treated of animals. Harvey Riley, superintendent of government mules for more than thirty yeas, has written a mule book, which is 'mighty interesting reading.' It explains a lot of things. For instance, why does a mule kick? Simply to protect himself, which is an obedience to the first law of life....Few animals respond to kindness better than the mule. If his man master will not spring at him or shout at him or strike him or otherwise frighten him he will be more easily managed than a horse. Most of a mule's cussedness is due to the cussedness of the man who has charge of him. This is what Riley says, anyway, and he ought to know." -The Starry Cross "Mr. Harvey Riley, of Washington, who has probably had more to do with mules than any other one man in the country, publishes a few practical hints on the proper treatment of this unfortunate animal." -Supplement to the Courant "Really solid value....The earnestness of the writer, his familiarity with his subject, his excellent common sense, and his clear way of putting home truths...The book should be in the hands of every mule owner or driver who can read." -American Agriculturist

Jacky is a translator. He’s a bit of an eccentric. And he can’t quite understand why the alluring and beautiful girl at the bar wants to talk to him. Even more perplexing is the tattered book she carries with her but won’t let him touch.

When she disappears hours later and the book comes into his possession, suspicion falls on him. Pursued by the police and armed with nothing but the book she has left behind, an unwavering determination, and the assistance of the world’s most annoying man, Jacky must race through Paris to solve the mystery and find the missing girl.

Orr Loveless is exactly where he knows he belongs, rescuing and training mules. Despite their reputation, which he feels is undeserved, he knows they are smart, sure footed, and great mounts for trail riding and outdoor adventures. The only thing he lacks is a human partner to share the work and the fun, but he knows his lifestyle is not likely to attract one. Jase Keller has returned to New Mexico, where his forgotten roots remain. With his high finance job destroying him, he desperately needs a big change for this vacation. Only Orr Loveless doesn’t seem to want to take him on a wilderness trip. When they go, it’s the opposite of the farm boy seeing the city for the first time. Jase discovers another life and it’s the one he wants to live ... with Orr by his side. Can Jase persuade a stubborn mule man like Orr that he doesn’t need to be “loveless” any longer?
