Book Description:
I am getting more and more excited and Mama is getting more and more down in the mouth about me going on the drive. Last year when I saw the guys leaving for Kansas. I dreamed I was going with them, my hat pulled down low over my eyes and my wipe tied loose around my neck. Mama talked about farming and how good it was. Iallowed how it was good, but what I dreamed about was being a cowboy.

I enjoyed this depiction of cowboy history from a first hand point of view. (Just a note that this book is completely fiction, even though the epilogue makes it seem like it's a true story. The back of the book has the fiction disclaimer in it.)
