This book is fun and easy to read. Answers any question you can think up. It's going on my "keeper" shelf.

There are three things that make this book a great buy. First is the detailed knowledge of technique and life style being offered to the reader. I found this book to be very informative not only from a practicle skills point of view but also from being very informative about the types of work (confinement, small ranch and large ranch) and the regional differences in the work. Second is the easy, breezy story tellin' writing style of Tim O'Byrne. He is a pleasure to read and teaches many things without you being aware of the lesson. Lastly, the production quality of the book is exactly what you'd expect from a Western Horseman publication. High quality paper, binding, printing, and photography make this book an excellent value. Thank you Tim and Western Horseman.

A very informative look into the every day going ons of the modern cowboy that covers everything from heard handling and care to horse handling and care you even get a glimpse into the modern cowboy lifestyle. This is an excellent book from Western Horseman magazine with beautiful photography and is well written and easy to follow a must for anybody who is a cowboy aficionado or wanting to be one.
