All those late-night John Wayne movies or old episodes of Rawhide got you hankerin' for the freedom and romance of the cowboy life? Started listening to old Sons of the Pioneers songs while commuting to the office? Well, be sure to read "Cowboy Romance" before you trade your Toyota Land Cruiser for an old beat-up Ford pickup and head for the hills. This book will set you straight on the cowboy life, and it's sure not about sitting around the campfire singing "Old Paint" while pretty cowgirls swoon.
Bob Kinford, the cowboy who wrote the book, is that rare blend of good cowpuncher and good writer. Bob's company, the "Too Lazy for You Livestock and Literary Company," underscores these talents. The book is well-designed and the illustrator, James Dorrance, is as talented as I've seen anywhere. In the introduction to the book, Bob asks: "If it isn't romance, freedom, or big money, what is it that makes one earn his living as a cowboy? As soon as I find out, I'll let you know, because I haven't the foggiest idea."
But Bob does know, and after you read his stories (all true), you begin to get a glimmer. Actually, he gives you a hint in the introduction, when he says, "So in spite of the broken bones, frostbitten fingers, and poverty, you press on for whatever the moments of pure pain and pure pleasure are worth, for without one you cannot truly appreciate the other." Bob's stories will have you in stitches, but they also are real and show you what price these men pay for their hard-won independence and freedom. It's a price most of are too lazy or too insecure (we want that retirement plan) to want to pay, so we'll read the book, laugh, and wish we could have more adventure in our lives, then (perhaps wisely, but the loss is ours) go back to the office. Great book!

True stories of "cun-cussin" induced cowboy humor from a working ranch cowboy with over 35 years in the saddle. Bob's writing will make you feel the pain and see the humor of living life in the cowboy lane. From being "bull-ta-puted" to being hit by lightning or dragged across the desert by his foot under a runaway bronc mule, Bob Kinford will have you simultaneously laughing and wrenching in pain. A must read for real cowboys and "wannabes" alike!
