Great American Cowboy Stories

Great American Cowboy Stories gathers the finest Western tales ever written, representing not just the Anglo male perspective but the full, rich tapestry of life on the range: Black cowboys, Mexican vaqueros, and women who carved out lives in the wide-open frontier.

- Theodore Roosevelt
- Mark Twain
- Zane Grey
