Now THIS is a book about cowboys that reads like it might have actually happened. Although it's fiction, the stories in this book sound like they might have been told by old hands around a campfire on roundup. Not much, if any, gunplay. Just hard-working people talking about amusing or unusual events they'd been part of , and the folks they'd encountered.

History

Watchmaker Publishing

Andy Adams was the son of pioneers, and he grew up driving cattle and horses on his family’s farm. As a young man, he spent time driving cattle in Texas, later migrating to Colorado and Nevada in the 1880’s to try his hand at gold mining. Waiting until he was already 43 years of age to begin his writing career, Adams achieved literary success with his very first novel, a classic tale about a cowboy’s life on the Old Trail.

Wells Brothers: The Young Cattle Kings

"Now a little boy or girl, and many an older person, thinks that a spotted horse is the real thing, but practical cattle men know that this freak of color in range-bred horses is the result of in-and-in breeding, with consequent physical and mental deterioration."
