What little boy doesn't think
about becoming a cowboy when he
grows up? Tom Groneberg actually
did it; he left his home
near Chicago and took a job as a
ranch hand in Montana.
Even if you are not interested in
ranching, you may be surprised to
find you have an unexpected urge
to relocate to the West and raise
cattle after reading this beautifully
written book.
Favorite Quote: “It begins with a poem, a haiku:
‘Hard work with horses in a
beautiful setting. Write for more
info.'”
