THE OLD-TIME COWHAND THE OLD-TIME COWHAND
Adams, Ramon F.
The MacMillan Company, New York, 1961. Cloth Covered Boards. Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: good. Nick Eggenhofer (illustrat. 354 pp. SIGNED by Author..

The illustrated cowboy drawing on the dust jacket front is still clear and complete. True details on a vanished way of life in the American Old West. ".everthing about the real, ungilded, old-time cowhand, what he did, wore, thought. His horse, guns, rope, clothing, sleeping bag; his eating and drinking habits; his attitude toward God, women bosses, saloons, rodeos; his unwritten code of conduct. A complete manual of rules with regard to every aspect of his job--cow-punching, fence-riding, bronco-busting, trail-driving, together with a point-blank analysis of cows, bulls, horses, range diseases. The cowboy of fact, not fiction."
