Book Description

May 1, 1995 0931271304 978-0931271304 First printing/Full number line
Frontier "hog ranches" were part saloon, part dance hall, and part brothel. These rip-roaring establishments usually sprung up around forts to provide diversion for the troops, although cowboys and locals were willing to pull up a stool at the bar as well.
Author Larry Brown has gathered the stories of Wyoming's hog ranches from Mother Featherleg's place to the Nine Mile Ranch to the Hog Ranch at Fetterman. The colorful sites were brimming with sin, gunplay, murder, outlaws, and romance.

Great stories by a great storyteller. Reading each chapter is like eating a bowl of peanuts, before you know it you're done and really enjoyed!

4.0 out of 5 stars Fun reading. Great stories of frontier Wyoming., March 19, 1998
This review is from: The Hog Ranches of Wyoming: Liquor, Lust, and Lies Under Sagebrush Skies (Paperback)
Great snapshot of stories of Wyoming's early days and the "entertainment" available to the cowboys and the trouble they got into when they were entertaining. It appears that a lot of research had to be done to find out the details and stories to put into this writing. Fun reading..
