Böcker av Ben K. Green

Takes us back to the deep Southwest and the never-a-dull-moment years the author spent as a practicing horse doctor along the Pecos and the Rio Grande. This book tells the tales of his struggles with mean stockmen, yellowweed fever, banditos, poison hay, and 'drouth'.

Recounts the dealings of a whole slew of craggy old-timers and rangy characters.

In thirteen stories full of rope burns and brush scratches, the author tells of the days when he made a specialty of catching wild cows. Readers of this book learn where the broken bones came from. He tells of his adventures with wild steers, sharing with readers the years he worked in thorny brush and canyon country delivering those animals.

Includes twenty tales that add up to a true account of author's experiences around the corrals, livery stables, and wagon yards of the West. This title contains tales that range from tricks to make an old horse seem young (at least until the poor creature died from the side effects of the scam) to a recipe for making a dapple-gray mule.
