Annotation:
Freelance reporter Lisa Jones recounts the improbable story of Stanford Addison, a quadriplegic Arapaho Indian with unexplainable powers of animal communication and spiritual healing. As Jones insinuates herself into Addison's ranch life, and witnesses his amazing abilities with wild horses, she realizes that perhaps she is also in need of his healing powers and spiritual guidance.

"[A] heart-wrenching odyssey of cross-cultural education and personal change....Jones manages to bring a sense of objectivity and cultural sensitivity to Native American spirituality....There is a pathway to self-discovery and change in BROKEN that is more truthful and real than that found in any self-help book."
