Editorial Reviews

Review

"Over the years, Brookie and I met many people who came here hunting and they were so fascinated by our stories of our experiences they kept telling us we should write a book. I decided a lot of people might enjoy our stories and I felt this way of life was fast disappearing and I wanted to leave some record of it for future generations of my family." - quote from Louise Turk, author of Sheep!.

About the Author

Louise Turk spent more than 50 years of her life in the Big Horn Mountains with her husband Brookie and three children. She retired in the Fall of 1998 and now resides in Kaycee, Wyoming and is excited at having her first published book. She wishes to dedicate her book to the memory of her late husband, her son Pete and her friends Pete, Don and Peto Meike who all gave her the inspiration and chance to become the woman she is.

4.0 out of 5 stars A wonderfull and refreshing story of a remarkable woman, May 25, 2001
By 
Jeb Taylor (Buffalo, WY United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sheep (Hardcover)
It is rare to find a book that is so uncontrived and refreshing to read. A true story that would appeal to anyone interested in reading about sheep hearding in the west. But more than anything else, this is a story about a remarkable woman and her family that will surely touch the heart of anyone who reads it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great view back into time, June 15, 2003
This review is from: Sheep (Hardcover)
This book is a tremendous book especially if you have visited Johnson County, Wyoming. Ms. Turk writes in a manner that you can picture all the trials and joy she experienced growing up in Wyoming. If you are going to visit Wyoming or have an interest - this is a book you have to read!

5.0 out of 5 stars Pretty good read, June 20, 2009
This review is from: Sheep (Hardcover)
Since I have a sheep wagon it was very interesting and informative. Other wise I cannot imagine why anyone would be interested, although, if you want to see a woman who was pretty kewl, then Louise Turk is your gal.
