patience

train
previously

captured
international
attention

perhaps
the
most
famous
of his
demonstrations
,
Rarey
took
just
three
hours
to
tame
a
vicious
horse
named
Cruiser
.
Rarey
was
given
the
horse
as a
reward
for his
skill
. He then
exhibited
Cruiser
and his
techniques
throughout
the
United
States
and
Europe
.
