5.0 out of 5 stars
AN EXCELLENT BOOK!!!!!!, April 27, 2003
This review is from: The Lonesome Chisholm Trail (Mass Market Paperback)
Being a sixteen year old greenhorn, Tyrell Breen finds himself horse less, without any money and a half canteen of water thanks to choosing the wrong trail partner. Ty eventually finds his way to his uncle Clifford D. Rydners ranch in hopes of fulfilling his dream of becoming a cowboy. Cliff had once been a top trail boss on many a cattle drive but Tyrell finds his uncle is now nothing more than a drunk. Then Douglas Simpson hires Cliff to ramrod two thousand beeves up north to Wichita and Ty's education on becoming a cowboy begins. THE LONESOME CHISHOLM TRAIL offers an insight into the comrade of cowboys on the trail and the hardships on a long drive north. AN EXCELLENT BOOK by one of the top young western writers of today.

Ty a 16 yr. old boy, tired, dirty, and broke searches for his uncle. only to find him a drunk, broke and living in filth. ty shames his uncle cliff into being a trail boss and letting ty join up. i,ve read many a trail drive storys, but found this one to have many situations different than the others. 2 thousand doggies and many weeks later comes an ending i would have never guessed. you will be surprised too.
