"The Log of a Cowboy" is the captivating tale of an 1882 cattle drive up the old Western Trail from the Rio Grande to just south of the Canadian border in Montana. While a fictional narrative, "The Log of a Cowboy" is rich with authentic detail of the old west, due largely to the fact that the author, Andy Adams, spent more than a decade in Texas in the 1880s driving cattle on the Western Trail. A delightful story of a bygone era, "The Log of a Cowboy" will delight fans of the western genre and old west history buffs alike.
