Some of us are born with a sense of agency over our lives. Some of us acquire this sense of agency later in life while others never acquire it at all. I was born knowing that I was in charge of my own destiny. My stories are equal parts sad, humorous, and everything in between. For example, my father taught me how to drive a tractor at age three. At age thirteen, he taught me how to artificially inseminate cows. Once, we almost lost a farmhand in our manure pit. Always Hope is my coming-of-age story grounded in rural life, dairy cows, and one amazing Arabian horse.

Nothing about Bill and Joanne Gutknecht’s history indicated that they would one day breed an Arabian national champion. He was ex-military and, among several careers, owned and operated a pet boarding and cemetery business. She worked in a clipper-manufacturing factory. Neither came from a rural background. Instead, both bred, trained, and showed German Shepherd dogs. The saga of Kimbrook Arabians features an unlikely couple from the Midwest who not only founded a small breeding program during the Golden Age of the Arabian horse but also bred several champions. Kimbrook’s influence has continued for over fifty years, and descendants of the farm’s foundation stock can still be found throughout the United States. The Gutknechts’ program is one of the few Arabian breeding programs that started in the late 1960s and survived into the 2000s. Kimbrook Arabians reveals this unusual couple's improbable influence on an ancient breed.
