Blakeslee and Kurt Markus and with historical black-and-white photographs. In Very Good condition.

Staple bound, binding tight. Inscribed and signed by the author on the title page, thanking the recipient for his friendship and for the hours he spent helping to make High Desert history come to life, signed "Bob." Pages otherwise clean and unmarked. Catalog of the High Desert Museum exhibition that ran in Bend, Oregon from June 14, 2003 through October 23, 2004, and reopened in February 2005 at the Western Folklife Center in Elko, Nevada. Written by the museum's Western History Curator, Robert Boyd, it was the third in the museum's trilogy of cultural-history exhibits, following Gum San on the Chinese in the West and Amerikanuak on the Basques. The buckaroo of northern Nevada, southwestern Idaho and eastern Oregon is not the cowboy of the Great Plains: he is the direct descendant of the Spanish vaquero, and his long rawhide reata, dalla vuelta roping style, spade bit, hackamore and tapaderos trace back through the Californios and the conquistadores to the Moorish and Arab horsemen of North Africa, which is what Boyd means by horsemen across three continents. The chief draw is the photography. Kurt Markus (1947-2022), whose Buckaroo: Images from the Sagebrush Basin (1987) put these horsemen in front of a national audience before he went on to shoot for Harper's Bazaar, Calvin Klein and Armani, served as an advisor to the exhibit and supplied its contemporary range photographs; Charles A. Blakeslee supplied the landscape work. Also reproduced are historical photographs of Rafael "Chappo" Remudas at the P Ranch about 1890, the Spanish Ranch and Miller & Lux crews, chuckwagons and roundup camps, and vaquero gear from museum and family collections. Contents: Horseman Across Three Continents; Vaqueros in the High Desert; Passing on Traditions; On the Range and at the Ranch; Making a Home on the Sagebrush Sea; Buckaroos for a New Millennium.
