In his slow cowboy drawl, the Old Cattleman recalls Wolfville, Arizona: a printers’ strike at the town newspaper, the feud of Pickles, Cherokee Hall at the poker table, the treachery of Curly Ben and the ups and downs of Dave Tutt. The dialect sketches mix tall-tale humour with flashes of frontier violence.
Popular in its day for its talk and character, it remains a lively source of frontier humour. Download the free EPUB.
