Download or read book Cowboy is a Verb written by Richard Collins and published by University of Nevada Press. This book was released on 2019-11-06 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the big picture to the smallest detail, Richard Collins fashions a rousing memoir about the modern-day lives of cowboys and ranchers. However, Cowboy is a Verb is much more than wild horse rides and cattle chases. While Collins recounts stories of quirky ranch horses, cranky cow critters, cow dogs, and the people who use and care for them, he also paints a rural West struggling to survive the onslaught of relentless suburbanization. A born storyteller with a flair for words, Collins breathes life into the geology, history, and interdependency of land, water, and native and introduced plants and animals. He conjures indelible portraits of the hardworking, dedicated people he comes to know. With both humor and humility, he recounts the day-to-day challenges of ranch life such as how to build a productive herd, distribute your cattle evenly across a rough and rocky landscape, and establish a grazing system that allows pastures enough time to recover. He also intimately recounts a battle over the endangered Gila topminnow and how he and his neighbors worked with university range scientists, forest service conservationists, and funding agencies to improve their ranches as well as the ecological health of the Redrock Canyon watershed. Ranchers who want to stay in the game don’t dominate the landscape; instead, they have to continually study the land and the animals it supports. Collins is a keen observer of both. He demonstrates that patience, resilience, and a common-sense approach to conservation and range management are what counts, combined with an enduring affection for nature, its animals, and the land. Cowboy is a Verb is not a romanticized story of cowboy life on the range, rather it is a complex story of the complicated work involved with being a rancher in the twenty-first-century West.

Download or read book Orejana Outfit written by Kathy McCraine and published by . This book was released on 2017-05 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "To Arizona cowpunchers the Spanish word orejana refers to an ownerless, unbranded bovine old enough to quit its mother, in other words a maverick. Somehow that word evokes images of the legendary O RO Ranch north of Prescott, Arizona. This rough and remote, 257,000-acre ranch is as wild as the elusive orejanas that brush up in its precipitous canyons, evading the rope and all semblance of modern civilization. Once a Spanish Land Grant, this outfit has a tangible mystique about it that everyone who ever worked or lived here feels. Journalist and photographer Kathy McCraine is one of very few people ever allowed to photograph on this iconic ranch, which is locked to the public. From 1993 to 2013 she made numerous trips to the headquarters and to the remote areas on the ranch where the roundup wagon camped. Her unstaged photos depict the everyday lives of some of the last of the real, big outfit cowboys, at work catching horses out of the remuda, dragging calves to the fire for branding, and breaking broncs." --
