This review is from: GIT ALONG LITTLE DOGIES: SONGS AND SONGMAKERS OF THE AMERICAN WEST (Music in American Life) (Paperback)

I really enjoy the photos, songs and stories of early cowboy folksongs and singers. I am biased because my Granfather (Romaine H Lowdermilk) is in the book and this opened my eyes to how his friends saw him in his early years.

First Sentence:
The long-forgotten western diaries of Owen Wister, author of The Virginian, contribute an interesting bit to the history of one of the best-known American cowboy songs-one usually titled "Whoopee Ti Yi Yo, Git Along, Little Dogies"-and indicate that more than three-quarters of a century ago Texas cowpunchers were familiar with this lyrical description of life on the cattle trail.
