Book excerpt: These are not the pretty photographs of a romanticized people who occupy a perceived West you might expect.These are photographs of real people who deal with the hard realities of running real cow ranches in the high Rocky Mountains of Montana decade after decade; the people who do the calving and branding, the haying and herding and fencing, be it well over 100 degrees or 40 degrees below zero.Embodied in these photographs is the true Montana.The 50 portraits in this book portray these people as only Robert Osborn can; as images that are as tough and honest and gritty as the cowboy or cowgirl depicted.Seeing, living, and breathing the art of photography is what and who Robert Osborn is; and is vividly portrayed in this beautiful book.These 50 portraits are enduring and timeless works of art.
Download or read book Montana Cowboy written by Wanda Rosseland and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2011-08-02 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Montana Cowboy brings together true stories of real cowboys and cowgirls from across the Treasure State. Cowboys who have chased wild horses in the Missouri River badlands, ridden through freezing blizzards, and followed the roundup wagons while branding calves in the spring and gathering in the fall. Many of these stories come from early day settlers and exhibit the fortitude and toughness needed to survive when Montana was little more than a land of wolf tracks and unfenced grass. Others relate more modern experiences, some dangerous, others unpredictable, as so often happens when working with livestock. Through them all, a thread of humor and respect for fellow man runs like an invisible strand, just as the cowboy’s heart is never far from a jest or a practical joke.

Download or read book A Wilder West written by Mary-Ellen Kelm and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2012-07-01 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The rodeo cowboy is one of the most evocative images of the Wild West. The master of the frontier, he is renowned for his masculinity, toughness, and skill. A Wilder West returns to rodeo's small-town roots to explore how rodeo simultaneously embodies and subverts our traditional understandings of power relations between man and nature, women and men, settlers and Aboriginal peoples. An important contact zone – a chaotic and unpredictable place of encounter – rodeo has challenged expected social hierarchies, bringing people together across racial and gender divides to create friendships, rivalries, and unexpected intimacies. At the rodeo, Aboriginal riders became local heroes, and rodeo queens spoke their minds. A Wilder West complicates the idea of western Canada as a “white man's country” and shows how rural rodeos have been communities in which different rules applied. Lavishly illustrated, this creative history will change the way we see the West's most controversial sport.
