| Summary | "Le cheval sauvage" by Mayne Reid is a novel written in the mid-19th century. The story centers around Captain Worfield, who finds himself in search of the legendary "White Horse of the Prairie" in the Mexican pampas after receiving a letter from a neighboring plantation owner. As he embarks on his adventurous quest, readers are introduced to themes of exploration, excitement, and the allure of the wild. At the start of the novel, Captain Worfield recalls a monotonous period of waiting in a dull village during a military campaign. Seeking excitement, he receives a letter inviting him to catch an elusive and magnificent wild horse known for its speed and uniqueness. Joined by a group of experienced hunters, they navigate through the forest in pursuit of the mustangs, but soon realize the elusive White Horse is missing from the herd. Following its tracks, Worfield encounters a significant challenge as the adventure unfolds with unexpected dangers, including a perilous encounter with a bear and his subsequent run-ins with various obstacles, all set against the vibrant backdrop of the South American landscape.
