In our restless, confused society, there is a yearning for a
connection to the land; for the sound of the human voice; for
simple, natural truth. Cowboy poetry, says the Portland Oregonian,
"is sort of like country music: It's straight talk, dealing with
fundamentals, using images that you can touch. . . . In this
beautifully presented book, Anne Heath Widmark has compiled the
works of twelve Western bards who excel at the form." These twelve
poets, through biographical and photographic portraits and their
own poems, acquaint us with a diverse tradition tied to the rhythms
of land, animals, and seasons. Among the cowboy poets who make up
this book, we meet Wally McRae, a third-generation rancher from
Forsyth, Montana; Paul Zarzyski, a former bronc rider with a
master's in literature; and Linda Hussa, a buckaroo who ranches
with her husband in the "sagebrush corner" of northeastern
California. Their poems ride free over the range of human
experience.
