Overview
'A ranch-farmer down in Las Cruces / Instead of fat cattle, raised gooses / His cowboys all quite / 'Cause they just couldn't git / The gooses to stay in their nooses.' This is just one of the 53 clever and humorous limericks included in this volume written by S. Omar Barker, famous western writer from New Mexico. Mr. Barker completed more than 1,200 articles, 1,500 short stories, and 2,000 poems, as well as numerous books of various genres during his 91 years. Still popular today, his verses are printed on the widely available Leanin' Tree line of greeting cards. Grosshauser's skillful pen & ink drawings capture Mr. Barker's quirky humor.Book Details
