The series, which is presented by the Man O’ War Project at Columbia University Irving Medical Center and the Earle I.

Part one focuses on SquirrelWood Equine Sanctuary, part two features the Man O’ War Project at Columbia University Irving Medical Center, and part three explores the unconventional and innovative Heroes and Horses program based in Montana. Part two of the series, which can be viewed here, focuses on the work of the Man O’ War Project at Columbia University Irving Medical Center. Borne of his commitment to public service and his love of racehorses and their post-racing care, the Man O’ War Project at Columbia University Irving Medical Center is the brainchild of Ambassador Earle Mack.
