Rodeo

Rodeo

An Animal History

by Susan Nance

Rodeo is a dangerous sport that reveals many westerners as people proudly tolerant of risk and violence, and ready to impose these values on livestock. In Rodeo: An Animal History, Nance pushes past standard histories and the sport’s publicity to show how rodeo was shot through with stubbornness and human failing as much as fortitude and community spirit.

My Ranch, Too

My Ranch, Too

A Wyoming Memoir

by Mary Budd Flitner

Foreword by Teresa Jordan

For many outsiders, the word “ranching” conjures romantic images of riding on horseback through rolling grasslands while living and working against a backdrop of breathtaking mountain vistas. In this absorbing memoir of life in the Wyoming high country, Mary Budd Flitner offers a more authentic glimpse into the daily realities of ranch life—and what it takes to survive in the ranching world.
 

Love Can Be

Love Can Be

A Literary Collection about Our Animals

Edited by Louisa McCune and Teresa Miller

Woody Guthrie said it first, “love can be . . . in all forms of life,” and this anthology of poems and essays is proof of that, as thirty acclaimed authors join together to champion life in all its kinds. This is their gift to the world, not just the artistry of their words, but their vision of an extended community that includes cats, birds, frogs, butterflies, bears, dogs, raccoons, horses—a full-out menagerie of being that enriches us all.
 

The Matador Land and Cattle Company

The Matador Land and Cattle Company

by W. M. Pearce

The Scots, a people noted for their frugality, invested with almost reckless abandon in American cattle-raising ventures in the 1880s. Among the companies thus financed, the Matador Land and Cattle Company was unique. It operated first and foremost as a business enterprise designed to produce profit over a long period of time; sun, sweat, and stable leather were only incidental to the primary purpose of raising quality beef.
