Book Why the Chisholm Trail Forks and Other Tales of the Cattle Country

Download or read book Why the Chisholm Trail Forks and Other Tales of the Cattle Country written by Andy Adams and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2010-06-04 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This sparkling collection of tales told around Western campfires, written by the master chronicler of the range, is a literary find of great interest and genuine importance. Andy Adams is remembered chiefly as the author of The Log of a Cowboy. Among the most charming features of the Log are the stories the cowhands told around the fires at night when the day's work was done. Similar and equally delightful stories are scattered throughout several other less successful novels, long out of print, while others that never saw publication were found by the editor among Adams' papers. In the present book, Wilson M. Hudson has gathered together these tales of the trail and camp into one volume that surely will delight the hearts of all readers who are interested in the old West.

Book Charles M  Russell

    Book Details:
  • Author : Raphael James Cristy
  • Publisher : UNM Press
  • Release : 2004
  • ISBN : 9780826332851
  • Pages : 388 pages

Download or read book Charles M Russell written by Raphael James Cristy and published by UNM Press. This book was released on 2004 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Well known for his sketches, paintings, and sculptures of the Old West, Charles M. Russell (1864-1926) was also an accomplished author in the humorous genre known as "local color." Raphael Cristy sorts Russell's writings into four general categories: serious Indian stories, men encountering wildlife, cattle range characters, and nineteenth-century westerners facing twentieth-century challenges. Russell's art is often misinterpreted as mere longing for a fading open-range west, but his writings tell a different story. Cristy shows how Russell amused his peers with stories that also delivered sharp observations of Euro-American suppression of Indians and humorous treatment of wilderness and range issues plus the emergence of women and urbanization as bewildering agents of change in the modern West. "A welcome departure from the usual biographies and coffee table volumes on Russell and his art. . . . [Cristy] deals with an important, yet relatively unexplored, aspect of the career of one of the most influential interpreters of the American West."--Byron Price, Director, C. M. Russell Center for the Study of Art

Book Andy Adams  Campfire Tales

    Book Details:
  • Author : Andy Adams
  • Publisher : U of Nebraska Press
  • Release : 1976-01-01
  • ISBN : 9780803258358
  • Pages : 336 pages

Download or read book Andy Adams Campfire Tales written by Andy Adams and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 1976-01-01 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Andy Adams' The Log of a Cowboy has long been acknowledged a classic of western American literature. Hoffman Birney, in the New York Times Book Review, once declared, "If there is such a thing as an all-time 'best' Western, that is it." One of the most delightful features of the Log is the inclusion of tales told by the cowboys at night. Adams was a master of the campfire tale, and the fifty-one collected here, each told by an Andy Adams character, touch upon every aspect of range life. Readers will never forget characters like Bull Durham, Uncle Dave Hapfinger, and Aaron Scales, or the tale of the tubercular drifter whose death caused tough cowboys to cry, or the gruesome account of the hanging of the renegade Kansas lawman, or the humorous incident of the "big brindle muley ox" that decided to ride instead of walk.

  • Publisher : Bloomsbury Publishing
  • Release : 2019-07-25
  • ISBN : 1838717730
  • Pages : 103 pages

Download or read book Red River written by Suzanne Liandrat-Guigues and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2019-07-25 with total page 103 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Red River (1947) is one of Howard Hawks' near-perfect films. A sweeping, fast-moving Western, it's stunningly shot and stars John Wayne and Montgomery Clift in complex roles set off by typically fine ensemble acting. In her study, Suzanne Liandrat-Guigues explores the thematic complexity of 'Red River' as well as its historical resonances and its place in film history. She focuses particular attention on the actors' contributions and on 'Red River''s relationship to other Hawks classics.
