SPILLOVER BY JENNIFER CRANE

On June 14 2006, Clive, a thoroughbred gelding, died an agonizing death. It was a death that would mark the beginning of an emotional nightmare for his owner, Jennifer Crane and her family.  Jennifer’s account of the death of her horse due to the Hendra virus portrays the pain of losing a beloved member of the family, her encounter with Queensland’s biosecurity procedures and a decision to try to increase the awareness of the fatal consequences when the balance of nature is tipped. This book is not only very well written, but it is an honest and well balanced account of her experiences.  I started reading it and I couldn’t put it down. The QHC has it for sale, for details please contact treasurer@qldhorsecouncil.com.
