Tribute is given to the artisans and craftsmen who fashioned the cowboy's unique outfit. The history of the famous frontier saddlemakers is explored.

Cowgirls and Calico Queens are included as exciting companions to our old time cowpokes. With over 550 color photos, 9"x11.5", deluxe hardcover edition. This book has a colorful foreword by the late Roy Rogers. Chapters include spurs, hats, saddles, boots, guns, chaps, WIld West Shows, soiled doves, longhorns, and much more.
