Book Description
The saga of the American cowgirl, unlike that of the cowboy, is not well-chronicled, but their history is as appealing as it is colorful. The First Ladies from the Great American West live again in this comprehensive pictorial chronicle. Many of the photos are printed here for the first time. Detailed captions provide the reader with rodeo lore, as well as biographical accomplishments of these extraordinary women never before presented in a cohesive format. A true reference work, Cowgirls: Early Images and Collectibles includes three dimensional collectibles along with hundreds of original photos which pay tribute to these dedicated, gallant women. This volume is a joy for the serious Western/Americana collector, and fascinating to anyone interested in women's history.
Reader Reviews
As a historian and teacher, I often find original articles and photographs as the best teaching aids possible. Although traveling photographers often staged photos, they also used items of clothing and props associated with the times, thus providing a visual study of articles. Oral history is also at times incorrect since memories & viewpoints often aren't completely correct. But, once again the visual item helps determining truth from fiction. This book is an excellect and colorfull collection of garments, photos, postcards, etc. spanding many years of the cowgirl. Items are stated to be unknown if the author is in question of its actual origin. The photos are very clear and are an easy study and the information is very informative.
