Back Trail of an Old Cowboy by Paul E. Young
Back Trail of an Old Cowboy is taken from actual diaries kept by cowboy Paul Young. Therefore, the writing style isn't the best, although if you know anything about being a cowboy and breaking horses, you will appreciate the experiences this man had in his life. As you read, you can tell that he was a typical cowboy personality, and he was honest enough to admit when he failed to conquer a ...

I uesd the directions in the book for the yard sale after ...

Keep On Keeping On
Book is the life story of a woman born and raised in Colorado in a small mining town. Not very interesting at all. I do not recommend this book unless you are personally acquainted with the author and have a personal reason for wanting it. It's fairly boring, in my opinion.

The West that Was, by John Leakey
Reading the book, "The West that Was" was absolutely wonderful! Mr. Leakey tells his life story of being a real cowboy and all the experiences he had in trying to make a living. It tells of encounters with Indians and cattle drives. It is absolutely fabulous in my opinion, if the reader is interested in real Western history accounts. I'm very glad that I chose to purchase it and I will ...
