Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

369 Pages. One inked line of owner's name inside of front cover. No marks or stamps and interior text pages are flawless. The decades of the '70s and the '80s were the heyday of the Old West as the world has come to know it in stories and songs, plays, motion pictures, and television dramas. Edgar Beecher Bronson, the real-life prototype of that now familiar character, the tenderfoot from the East, went out where the West began when it began. When he took his first herd of cattle north of the North Platte River, he went into an area of roughly three hundred thousand square miles which held no white man's habitation save the little camp of miners in the Black Hills, and had for its only tenants nomad bands of Cheyenne and of Oglala, Brule, and Uncapapa Sioux. Bar one ranch immediately on the Platte River to the east of Fort Laramie, was the first man to carry a herd of cattle into the Sioux country, and there locate and permanently maintain a ranch. The story of Bronson's apprenticeship on the range and his evolution from a greenhorn puncher into an experienced old hand has come to be regarded as a classic of cow-country literature. If almost an excessive amount of excitement seemed to come his way, it was not because he was hunting trouble, but was simply due to the fact that trouble seemed to take a lot of pleasure in hunting the few plains dwellers of that day in that region. It just came to all of us, in one form or another, in the course of the day's work in the late '70s and early '80s. Contents in 14 Chapters: A Desert Sport, The Making of a Cowboy, The Tenderfoot's Trials, The Tenderfoot's First Herd, A Cowboy Mutiny, Wintering Among Rustlers, A Finish Fight for a Birthright, McGillicuddy's Sword, The Last Great Sun Dance, End of the Trail, Concho Curly at the O'ra, Adios to Deadman, A Cheyenne Warrior-Historian, and The Conqueror of Mount Tyndall.…
