A modern cowboy manual

Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago

Fascinating book about the cowboy life- yesterday's and today's. The author is a fine wordsmith and the illustrations are marvelous. The author is clearly in love with the "Western Spirit," and you even if you have never been west of the Mississippi, you will probably be infected with her enthusiasm.

Great Reference

I bought this when we first moved to the West, so I would sound like a local! It's a great reference book, and explains the differences between vaqueros, cowboys, cowpunchers, and buckaroos. A fun read.
