Download or read book A Cowboy Handbook written by Mira Balsa Wood Fifth and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2011-10-19 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: FROM THE AUTHOR Born in Northern Oklahoma, this book takes a humorous look at the Midwest through my own personal experiences. It is all about the sayings and stories I was told by my family while growing up. Most of what I wrote is true; the rest comes from my own sick mind. So consider yourself forewarned. As part of my early history, my great great-grandfather, was a Sooner having settled in Oklahoma, illegally, before it was a state. He was also in the land run from Kansas, only six miles from where I grew up, when Oklahoma opened up. So he was also a Boomer. Great-granddad had a large ranch, and would wake up in the morning and the barn was full of outlaws such as Frank and Jesse James. He always told my mother that Belle Starr was the ugliest woman he had ever met. They all called him Doc, and would always ask him to go with them to rob a bank or train. We were only a few miles from the Kansas border, and the posies would not cross into Indian Territory or Oklahoma, so it was a safe haven for them. I wrote this book as through the view of Mira "Balsa" Wood (the fifth). He attempts to tell the story of Mira Wood who was the roughest, toughest, meanest, nastiest, baddest, most killin'est badass, who ever lived in the Old West. It talks about Mira's known gang members that included the hotel owner Hyatt Regency, Hyatt's wife Belle Hopp, and their son Valet. In addition to other gang members such as, "The drug store owner was Benny Poppin, the stagecoach driver was Ron Over, and his gal, Patty Cake. Jack Goff was the town banker, and Imma Penny was the dance hall girl. The bar tender was Bill Fold, and his gal, Fran Chize. Oh, Mira's best pal Dr. Happy, and his gal, Rita Book, their sons were Scan and Edit. The lumberyard manager was Tim Burr. Stealey Buck was the finance man, and his assistant was Helen Wait. If you wanted credit, you had to go to Helen Wait. The general store owner Terry Cloth, and his wife Ronda Block, and their two sons, Chip and Dale."

Book excerpt: Relive the Old West with illustrated biographies of Western luminaries like “Buffalo Bill” Cody, Charles Goodnight, Bill Pickett, William and George Calloway, Joseph McCoy, and more! The glory days of the Old West cowboy lasted for only a couple of decades, but during this short time the cowboy's reputation became a fundamental part of the American mythos. The Cowboys delves deep into the world of these iconic men. It gives an intimate insight into the tough working conditions of the cowboy's working kit, which has now achieved iconic status. This book even investigates the legendary Cowboy Code that governed the conduct and behavior of these rough-hewn men. The Cowboys examines the wider social impact of the nineteenth-century American cattle industry, which not only encouraged the building of railroads and new cattle towns in the western states, but also drew many different kinds of men to the frontier. Investors, freed slaves, crooks, ex-soldiers, and other would-be adventurers all took the opportunity to make a new start as cowhands and ranchers in the Wild West. The Cowboys investigates the life of the average cowboy and tells the stories of some of the most successful cattlemen. Even today, American culture continues to evoke the iconic persona of the cowboy through rodeos, movies, television, toys, books, and music. The Cowboys is a celebration of all aspects of the extraordinary cowboy legend.
