First edition. 8vo. Two-tone cloth, decorated endpapers, xv [1], 274 pp., foreword, illustrated, notes, bibliography, index. An outstanding biography of this famous author of many classic books on cowboys, cattle, and the range. "This book will be welcomed by everyone interested in the life and literature of that great pastoral empire called the Cow Country. In eleven of the twelve chapters, each headed by a quotation from Andy's writings, the author traces in detail the life and work of Andy Adams who made substantial contributions to that literature. Yet, little about the man himself has hitherto appeared in print. The final chapter is devoted to the place of Adams in western fiction." Fine, bright copy in dust jacket.
