Life on Texas Range

M.K. Brown Range Life Series

by Erwin E. Smith, J. Evetts Haley

First published in 1953, this photographic record of the real life and work of cowboys remains a perennial favorite. Erwin E. Smith was the outstanding cowboy photographer of the West, and these eighty photographs were among those he chose for an exhibit of his best work at the 1936 Texas Centennial. The text by J. Evetts Haley, a noted historian of the range, skillfully complements Smith's visual record of a vanishing way of life.

Wonderful photographs of the Texas cowboy in the early twentieth century, after the open range had been sectioned off by bared wire.
