Stoecklein's color photos and Saunders' text celebrate cowboys and ranch life; the oversize (12x11<">) format allows for an elaborate display, suitable for the coffee table. Each region of Texas is profiled with close looks at century-old ranches. Photos depict wildlife and landscapes, ranch buildings, gear, and stock, as well as the men who do the work; and the photos are accompanied by text, captions, and selected quotes, poems, and short stories conveying the history, pride, and personal qualities of the cowboys.
