Inspired
by a snowy trip through the Rockies,
A Cowboy Christmas celebrates
the mystique of the men who ride
the range. This compilation of
stories, poems, and recipes provides
insight into a simpler world
where, however bleak the circumstances,
the warmth of the holidays triumphs.
Under
the blazing Texas sun or in a British Columbia
blizzard, in a comfortable ranch house
or an isolated line-camp cabin, cowboys,
sometimes reluctantly, joined in a celebration
of Christmas. Anne Tempelman-Kluit has
uncovered tales by well-known figures such
as Roy Rogers, Andy Russell and Paul St.
Pierre, in which old-time working cowboys
overcome loneliness, boredom—even
the law—in order to spend Christmas
with friends.
