Publication: University of Oklahoma Press, 1957, Norman
First edition. 8vo. Brown cloth, xiv, 289 pp., introduction, illustrated. Twenty-seven authors depict the old-time cowboy in real life with authentic, first hand, significant contributions. Each narrative is written in a style that can translate the authoritative account into living reality, and much of this cowboy literature in its original form, is considered to be rare. The book is divided into three sections; the cowboy, the range, and the trail, with contributions by Joseph G. McCoy, Andy Adams, Mary J. Jaques, James Cox, John Clay, W.S. James, Edgar Rye, and many others. Historians, lovers of good reading, and connoisseurs of Western Americana will welcome and enjoy this important anthology. Fine in dust jacket with 1" pen mark to bottom rear wrapper, tiny closed tear to top and bottom of front panel along with rubbing to front panel edge and spine and with light wear to the extremities.
