Weldon King

These are actual experiences taken from the life of a West Texas boy who grew up under what many would consider difficult circumstances. However, it was fun for him. His experiences include working on a large ranch near the Llano Estacado in far West Texas, becoming a rodeo cowboy and a tenured professor at a major university. This is not fiction, it actually happened just the way it is relayed in the printed pages. It relives the fear, the elation, the excitement and disappointment that occur while pursuing this sport. An individual's inability to know when enough is enough and to walk away at the right time. The feeling a rodeo cowboy gets when performing before thousands of fans. The attempt to convey the feeling of elation while conquering a 2,000 lb. bull

or a top bucking bronc or the feeling of dejection generated by not making the whistle on one you nearly rode or should have ridden. It is an exciting true life experience.
