I See by Your Outfit Historic Cowboy Gear of the Northern Plains

The Cowboy has been pictured as either a knightly figure above reproach or as a wild semi-outlaw, as undomesticated as the prairie he roamed. The truth presents a different image.No Hollywood flim-flam or arty photographic recreation here. Lindmier and Mount demonstrate through the use of historic photographs what actual working cowboys of the Northern Plains wore and what equipment they used from the 1870s until 1928.These cowboys may not look like the ones in the movies, but you can bet your boots they are the real thing. Over 120 historic photos and illustrations.Lindmier, Thomas A. is the author of 'I See by Your Outfit Historic Cowboy Gear of the Northern Plains' with ISBN 9780931271335 and ISBN 0931271339.
