Dutch immigrant, Harry deLeyer, journeyed to the United States after World War II and developed a transformative relationship with a broken down plow horse he rescued off a truck bound for the glue factory. He paid eighty dollars for the horse, named him Snowman, and made him part of his family. In less than two years, Harry and Snowman went on to win the triple crown of show jumping, beating the nation’s blue bloods. The duo made headlines and travelled the world together. Their chance meeting saved them both and forged a friendship that lasted a lifetime. Eighty-six year old Harry tells their Cinderella story firsthand in this moving story.
With special guest Harry deLeyer in attendance.
