"Author John R. Erickson, creator of Hank the Cowdog, here sets out to answer the questions. Who is this cowboy? Where did he come from and where is the today? On the one hand he is a common man: a laborer, a hired hand who works for wages. Yet in his lonely struggle against nature and animal cunning, he becomes larger than life. "We meet the modern cowboy (his dress depends on weather, chores, and vanity) and follow him through the year: spring roundup, branding and 'working' the calves; spotting problem animals and cutting them from the herd; repairing windmills and mending fences; fall roundup, and feeding animals in winter... This is a lively portrait, sure to appeal to all Western buffs.""--BOOK JACKET.
