Great Texas Books offers low-cost downloads of Texas histories, memoirs, biographies, journals, and reports in e-book formats. Our editions are superior to similar texts available elsewhere because we meticulously convert, proof, edit, and design each book. Our books are not exact reproductions of the original text; they are entirely new editions designed for the 21st century reader of e-books.There is no better exploration of Texas cowboy life than Charles Siringos. What sets his memoir apart is his candid account of the personality, habits, and values that brought him to the range. His difficult, dirt-poor childhood, his free-spending ways, his driving wanderlust, his love of whisky, guns, horses, and star-topped boots, his distinctly situational ethics, his aversion to manual laborand equal aversion to educationcompose a package that belongs on the back of the horse. Siringo tells a great story, and he does it without any of the obvious embellishmen
