Download or read book The Ranchers written by Stan Steiner and published by Knopf Books for Young Readers. This book was released on 1980 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For more than thirty years, Stan Steiner has been wandering up and down the dusty back roads of the American West, listening to descendants of the pioneers recall how they lived out this century on the frontier. These old homesteaders have maintained their faith in a long-gone rural America, an America in which they had to "make do" -- with their wit, their ingenuity, the work of their hands, their individualism, their independence. Among them are the Skinner family, six generations of which have been born in the Jordan Valley of eastern Oregon, on a ranch that was acquired before Oregon became a state; Boyd Charter, whose father rode with Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, and who brought a St. Louis girl from finishing school to a log house in the Bull Mountains of Montana; Rita and Janaloo Hill, mother and daughter, who can be found in the general store of the New Mexico ghost town they own; Tug and Ruth Pettit, who may have been the last Americans to cross the plains in a covered wagon (in 1932). These proud and rugged people talk about cooking without fire, about learning the secrets of dry farming, about struggling against storm and drought, and about how they came to respect the life around them and to cherish the land. The Ranchers is full of the richness of western storytelling, a book that is both a contribution to the history of the West and a faithful portrait of remarkable men and women living a true American experience -- Book jacket.
Download or read book Cow Talk written by Michelle K. Berry and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 2023-03-16 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The image of western ranchers making a stand for their “rights”—against developers, the government, “illegal” immigrants—may be commonplace today, but the political power of the cowboy was a long time in the making. In a book steeped in the culture, traditions, and history of western range ranching, Michelle K. Berry takes readers into the Cold War world of cattle ranchers in the American West to show how that power, with its implications for the lands and resources of the mountain states, was built, shaped, and shored up between 1945 and 1965. After long days working the ranch, battling human and nonhuman threats, and wrestling with nature, ranchers got down to business of another sort, which Berry calls “cow talk.” Discussing the best new machinery; sharing stories of drought, blizzards, and bugs; talking money and management and strategy: these ranchers were building a community specific to their time, place, and work and creating a language that embodied their culture. Cow Talk explores how this language and its iconography evolved and how it came to provide both a context and a vehicle for political power. Using ranchers’ personal papers, publications, and cattle growers association records, the book provides an inside view of how range cattle ranchers in Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado, Wyoming, and Montana created a culture and a shared identity that would frame and inform their relationship with their environment and with society at large in an increasingly challenging, modernizing world. A multifaceted analysis of postwar ranch life, labor, and culture, this innovative work offers unprecedented insight into the cohesive political and cultural power of western ranchers in our day.

Download or read book Otters Dance written by Bob Budd and published by Fulcrum Publishing. This book was released on 2022-10-04 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Otters Dance is a treatise on ranching, conservation, wildlife, family, and most of all a unique appreciation of our home state of Wyoming...This is an absolute must-read for anyone who wants to understand the landscape, history, and culture of the rural Mountain West.” — C. J. Box, #1 New York Times Best-Selling Author of Shadows ReelAs a boy, Bob Budd grew up on the land with the wind at his back and the wide vista of Wyoming ranchland stretching before him. His family ranch in Wyoming was passed down, alongside an undying reverence for the land, from generation to generation. Budd spent his childhood learning skills and pocketing wisdom from his family, the ranch, and their community. Otters Dance is a story of stewardship from a perspective not often heard from— the rancher. It tells of the rhythms of the land, of the people and creatures that make it special, and the ways we can protect it, sharing a universal message about the importance of caring for our natural world. It is an elegy to the place that made Bob Budd who he is today and asks the reader to take some of that love and care back to the places that have imprinted themselves on their lives.

Download or read book The Cowboy written by Blake Allmendinger and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1992 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What are the connections between cattle branding and Christian salvation, between livestock castration and square dancing, between rustling and the making of spurs and horsehair bridles in prison, between children's coloring books and cowboy poetry as it is practiced today? The Cowboy usesliterary, historical, folkloric, and pop cultural sources to document ways in which cowboys address religion, gender, economics, and literature. Arguing that cowboys are defined by the work they do, Allmendinger sets out in each chapter to investigate one form of labor (such as branding, castration,or rustling) that cowboys perform in their "work culture." He then looks at early oral poems that cowboys recited around campfires, on trail drives, at roundups, and at home in their bunkhouses, and at later poems, histories and autobiographies written by cowboys--most of which have never beforebeen studied by scholars. He discovers that these texts not only deal with work but with larger concerns, including art, morality, spirituality, and male sexuality. In addition to spotlighting little-known texts, art, and archival sources, The Cowboy examines the works of Twain, Steinbeck, Cather,Norris, Dana, McMurtry, and others, and features more than 60 historic photographs, many of which have not been published until now.

Book excerpt: A fiercely independent heiress and a wild cowboy find strength with each other in the Wild West in this inspirational romance by the author of Finding Promise. For English heiress Mary Ann Hardwicke, the Wild West is the perfect place to make her own life and escape a stifling arranged marriage. Hard at work proving her independence, it’s little wonder she has no time for handsome cowboy Luke McBride. No matter that he somehow understands the freedom she so badly needs—how could she trust such a wild spirit, much less find a way to love him? Like the broncs he busts, Luke doesn’t see himself settling down in one place, let alone with one woman. So, at first, Mary Ann is just an intriguing challenge. But her determination and bravery spark a longing to prove he can be the truly good man she deserves. Now as their enemies work to separate them, they will take a dangerous gamble on faith to claim an enduring love . . . “It is bittersweet when a series ends; questions are answered, readers are reunited with beloved characters. Mary Ann was a favorite; she defied her family and society to explore the Wild West to prove she could take of herself. Dunn is a talented author who has brought new and refreshing ideas to the historical romance genre.” —RT Book Reviews “This one swept me off my feet . . . I didn’t want it to end!” —First for Women
