He was named “Sham” for the sun, this golden red stallion born in the Sultan of Morocco’s stone stables. Upon his heel was a small white spot, the symbol of speed. But on his chest was the symbol of misfortune. Although he was as swift as the desert winds, Sham’s proud pedigree would be scorned all his life by cruel masters and owners.

This is the classic story of Sham and his friend, the stable boy Agba. Their adventures take them from the sands of the Sahara to the royal courts of France and, finally, to the green pastures and stately homes of England. For Sham was the renowned “Godolphin Arabian” whose blood flows through the veins of almost every superior Thoroughbred. Sham’s speed–like his story–has become legendary.©2008 Marguerite Henry; (P)2008 Random House, Inc.

"King of the Wind" is Margarite Henry's finest work. I've loved it for over 50 years, and I was thrilled to find it here in Audible. It was a total pleasure to listen to one of my most treasured stories of all time being told by David McCallum, one of my favorite actors. He seemed to be into the story, and read it with such ease that it was obvious that he had invested time in practice.
I have given a 5-star rating because all categories deserve it.

A Book for a Lifetime...

This was one of the very first horse books i ever read. It single handedly has been responsible for my love of horses and racing and moorish art. i have owned MANY horses in my life, and i always try to link them back to Sham in someway.

one of the very first horse books i ever read.

This is a wonderful story by a favorite childhood author. I enjoyed listening to it with my daughter. The narration is outstanding. This audio performance was one of the best I have heard. I will be looking for other books read by David McCallum. One feature I especially like is that unlike some audio books, this book is divided into chapters that match the paperback copy I have. It can be so annoying if you want to switch between a hard copy and audio and the chapters do not match. I usually read aloud at home, but enjoy listening while in the car.

Childhood Classic!
