Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Hunting Grounds of the Great West: A Description of the Plains, Game, and Indians of the Great North American Desert Human nature is so liable to error, and to view facts through the medium of its own idiosyncrasies, that it is only by comparison of the opinions of different men that the world arrives at the truth of any subject. There is scarcely a man who has reached the middle age of an active life whose experiences and the opinions formed upon them would not, if written out, be interesting and valuable to some portion of mankind. To be valuable, however, it is of the utmost importance that the opinions be the result of intelligent observation or deduction of the person giving them. In writing these pages I have carefully abstained from consulting 'authorities,' and have treated the different subjects from my own standpoint. Whether valuable or otherwise, the ideas are my own ; and the beliefs expressed are the natural growth of long and varied experiences. I have had ample opportunity to study the Indian character and habits in his own native wilds. I have 'nothing extenuated nor set down aught in malice.'

Book Synopsis Fifty Years on the Old Frontier by : James H. Cook
Download or read book Fifty Years on the Old Frontier written by James H. Cook and published by Pickle Partners Publishing. This book was released on 2019-01-13 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Of all that has been written of the cowboy and the life of the cattle range, very little has been written by the principal actors themselves. The same is equally true of the famous government scouts, mail riders and other adventurous figures, who were men of deeds rather than words. Not many possessed, like David Crockett and W. F. Cody, the power to dramatize themselves. James H. Cook, the author of Fifty Years on the Old Frontier, first published in 1923, was, however, a genuine cowboy, and he was able to recount in a most readable way his adventures over half a century. During the Seventies and part of the Eighties he rode the ranges in Texas and New Mexico. A vivid account is to be found in the first part of the book of the life of the cattlemen in the Southwest, including such details as rounding up entirely wild cattle and horses, and the conveying of droves of animals hundreds of miles through extremely rough, Indian-infested territory. Those who desire thrills can find them here. The author served as government scout in the campaign against Geronimo in 1885, and later, in the North, saw much of the unfortunate troubles with the Sioux and the Cheyennes, whom he showed to have been shamefully misused by the Bureau of Indian Affairs. Much space is given to the Sioux chief, Red Cloud, of whom Cook was a champion and faithful friend. Not the least entertaining parts of the book are the narratives of hunts after big game in the Rockies, during the years when Cook was one of the foremost guides and hunters of the regions bordering the one transcontinental railway. An invaluable addition to any Old West collection!
