Convict Cowboys is the first book on the nation's first prison
rodeo, which ran from 1931 to 1986. At its apogee the Texas Prison
Rodeo drew 30,000 spectators on October Sundays. Mitchel P. Roth
portrays the Texas Prison Rodeo against a backdrop of Texas
history, covering the history of rodeo, the prison system, and
convict leasing, as well as important figures in Texas penology.
