5.0 out of 5 stars A great gift book--and one you'll want for your own library, July 2, 1996
By A Customer
This review is from: Cowboy Wisdom (Paperback)

There's lore galore in this attractive and entertaining collection of humor, nostalgia, trivia, and practical advice.

You'll find recipes, trail hints, poetry, songs, observations, and recollections. Lots of wisdom in a handy 5.5- by 6.75-inch format, which--as a blurb on the back cover notes--is "small enough to fit in a standard-sized saddlebag."

It features quotes by and anecdotes about cowboys (and cowgirls) from the movies, the old Wild West, and the contemporary range--where cowpunchers still ride horses, but tote their bedrolls in the back of a pickup.

A macho statement from lady outlaw Belle Starr: "A pair of six-shooters beats a pair of sixes." (1877)

A practical note from co-author Terry Hall: "Here's all you need to know about cows: They're not smart, they're bigger than you are, and some of them have absolutely no respect for human beings." (1993)

It's an attractive book and fun to read. A great book to give to a friend. But buy at least two--you'll want one for your own library
