The Cowboy An Unconventional History of Civilization on the Old Time Cattle Range Paperback - 1979
by Philip Ashton Rollins
Summary
*From the 1922 Edition's preface:*
The American cowboy, by reason of his picturesqueness, has been a frequent subject for the dramatist, the novelist, the illustrator, and the motion-picture photographer. All these producers have been limited by the technical requirements of their arts, and have stressed the cowboy's picturesqueness to the exclusion of his other qualities. They have done this so definitely and attractively as to create an ostensible type which rapidly is being accepted by the American public as an accurate portrayal of the now bygone puncher.
First line
To the Mexicans the American cowboy owed his vocation.

Albuquerque, New Mexico, U.S.A.: University of New Mexico Press, 1979. Trade Paperback. Very Good. 5 1/4" x 7 3/4. Mays, Buddy - Cover Photo. 402 Pages Indexed. Revised and Enlarged Reprint of the Scribner Edition. No marks or stamps to this tight square book with a faultless interior. This book is a 1979 UNM Press reprint of the 1936 Revised and Enlarged Edition of the original 1922 publication. This classic was printed six times during its first year of publication in 1922. It is a detailed social history of the manners, customs, and daily routine of the men who herded the cattle in the late 19th century. It is more than a compendium of lively descriptions. It is foremost an accurate, intensely interesting picture of cowboys as they were, not as they have been romanticized in movies and novels. From the Preface to the Revised and Enlarged Edition -- in this new edition the text has been much enlarged as concerns branding, roping, trail-driving, riding of bucking horses, social customs,…
