Book excerpt: "Lance, Rowdy-this here feller is one of the toughest lawyers out there, but he'd rather skin mules than talk law!" Levi Parker tracked the three mules stolen from his little spread up by Laramie until he lost their trail south and west of Cheyenne. He decided to ride into Cheyenne to do a little listening. Badger recognized the young lawyer and introduced him to the Rankins. During that visit, the Rankins and the Rocking R riders find that they have more in common with this newcomer than just stolen livestock. South of Laramie, Where the Trail Leads is the third novel in my "Home on the Range" series. Rejoin your friends and mine as they grow their families, their community, and their ranches around Cheyenne.

  • ISBN : 1439618453
  • Pages : 190 pages

Download or read book Laramie written by Charlie Petersen and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2007-07-04 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While it was still part of Dakota Territory, the town of Laramie was founded in 1868 with the arrival of the Union Pacific Railroad. Laramies placement on the high plains at an elevation of 7,200 feet has not made for an easy existence, but the hardy ranching families and cowboys, with their cattle hunkered down against the winds and snow, survived in spite of their harsh surroundings and even thrived in this unique eastern Wyoming town. This is the place where the infamous Jack McCall hid from the authorities, where Teddy Roosevelt rode the range, and where Butch Cassidy was held at the Wyoming Territorial Prison. From its early, rowdy days as an end-of-the-tracks tent town on the railroad, with gambling halls and an active nightlife, through the growing-up years of mills, quarries, and local wartime heroes, to the establishment of Wyomings only state university, Laramies remarkable story is told here through historic photographs.

Book The Virginian

  • Author : Owen Wister
  • Publisher : Lindhardt og Ringhof
  • Release : 2022-12-13
  • ISBN : 8728384148
  • Pages : 423 pages

Download or read book The Virginian written by Owen Wister and published by Lindhardt og Ringhof. This book was released on 2022-12-13 with total page 423 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Laying the foundations for Clint Eastwood’s nameless character in ‘The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly,’ ‘The Virginian’ is a landmark novel of the western genre. The eponymous hero is the strong, tall, silent type, acting as an armed escort to Tenderfoot on their journey to Judge Henry’s ranch in Sunk Creek. This action-packed story details their adventures and encounters along the way and includes, just as in any good western, a little romance. If you like your books full of hot bullets and cold killers, then this is the perfect place to start! Credited with setting the template for the classic western novel and the archetypal cowboy hero, Owen Wister (1860 – 1938) was born in Philadelphia. The son of an actress and a doctor, Wister spent his formative years travelling Europe, before returning to America at his father’s behest. After graduating from Harvard Law School, and suffering from poor mental health, he took the first of 15 trips to Wyoming. It was here that he was inspired to write notes and journals about the characters living in the beautiful wilderness. These notes were to serve as the basis for many of his books. His most famous work, ‘The Virginian’, would later become a TV series starring Doug McClure, and filmed for the silver screen, most recently in an adaptation starring Ron Perlman. Wister died in Rhode Island, at the age of 78.

Book From Fort Laramie to Wounded Knee

Download or read book From Fort Laramie to Wounded Knee written by Charles W. Allen and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2001-01-01 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The varied and colorful career of Charles Wesley Allen (1851-1942) took him throughout the northern Plains during an exceptionally turbulent era in its history. He was at the Red Cloud Agency when Red Cloud attempted to prevent the raising of the American flag and the Lakota nearly took over the agency. Allen also visited Deadwood at the height of the Black Hills gold rush, helped build the first government agency on the Pine Ridge reservation, and reported on the Lakota Ghost Dance. Allen happened to be walking through the Indian camp at Wounded Knee when shots rang out on December 29, 1890, and his is arguably the best of all the eyewitness accounts of that tragedy. ø This is Allen's previously unpublished vivid account of the years he described as "the most exciting chapter of my life." As much the chronicle of the passing of an era as a personal narrative, its simple, direct, and often moving prose captures the injustices, gritty details, and relentless energy of a period of dramatic change in the West.

Book The Meadow

Download or read book The Meadow written by James Galvin and published by Holt Paperbacks. This book was released on 2014-02-04 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An American Library Association Notable Book In discrete disclosures joined with the intricacy of a spider's web, James Galvin depicts the hundred-year history of a meadow in the arid mountains of the Colorado/Wyoming border. Galvin describes the seasons, the weather, the wildlife, and the few people who do not possess but are themselves possessed by this terrain. In so doing he reveals an experience that is part of our heritage and mythology. For Lyle, Ray, Clara, and App, the struggle to survive on an independent family ranch is a series of blameless failures and unacclaimed successes that illuminate the Western character. The Meadow evokes a sense of place that can be achieved only by someone who knows it intimately.
