I have a book called Cowboy and the Kid. by J. Brim Crow 111

It is full of black and white photos of old cowboy stars. This would be great for some boy who grew up in the 30's maybe that used to go to the picture show on Saturday ! LOL\

Cowboys like Gene Autry, Tim McCoy,William Boyd, Tom Mix, Even cowgirls likeEvelyn Finley,Mary Hart

(I just pulled some names out of the book, as I am too young to remember most of these.

although, there are some of John Wayne and Jimmy Stewart, and I do remember Maverick and bonanza ! LOL

Chapter titles:

 Three Views of the Cisco Kid

A day of Thrills and Action

Portrait Gallery

I would love to pass this book on to someone who would enjoy and appreciate it.

Over in the Westerns Thread, Heather H. posted that she is looking for some books for her elderly uncle who loves westerns.  You might suggest this book to her over in that thread.  It sounds like a good match!!
