Boston: Little, Brown & Compan, 1941. vii-xxiii,388pp. plus numerous illustrations by Tom Lea. Original pictorial cloth. Ownership inscription on front free endpaper. Without dust jacket, slight toning to spine. Internally clean and fresh. Very good. First edition, trade issue. "Dobie himself described this book as a 'history of the Longhorn breed, psychology of stampedes; days of maverickers and mavericks; stories of individual lead steers and outlaws of the range; stories about rawhide and many other related subjects. The book attempts to reveal the blend made by man, beast, and range.' One of the true classics of range cattle literature" - Reese. Certainly one of the Texas author's best books, and one of the best books on cattle, with illustrations by Tom Lea. REESE, SIX SCORE 32. ADAMS HERD 694. DOBIE, p.102. DYKES, KID 295.
