Publishers Description: The exciting story of cowboys and ranch life in the American West from the early days of the pioneering cattle drives to the railhead to modern style ranching with its mechanization and use of up-to-date methods. The traditional image and way of life of the cattlemen has changed very little in that time. Like his forefathers the modern cowboy wears cowboy boots, tight levis and a big Stetson hat; and his work requires a great deal of stamina and guts whether as an old-style trail boss, modern rancher or as a professional on the rodeo circuit. With over 160 illustrations in color and black and white this book captures the real flavor of cowboy life.
