The legendary James Kenney recalls some of his greatest adventures as a teen-age cowboy on the Southwestern ranches of the 1930s.

When cutting horse trainer Coy Cooper and his wife Linnie find that one of their buffalo has given birth to a rare white calf, there's more chaos than contentment in West Texas. The iconic buffalo calf holds a different meaning for each of those who visit her from the tourists and schemers, to the Native Americans for whom she is a harbinger of a new era. But the white buffalo's fate may rest in other hands . . .

A history of the first 50 years of the National Cutting Horse Association Futurity.

In this ground-breaking book, author Sally Harrison follows Matlock Rose along the path that made him a legend among performance horse trainers. She sheds light on the work ethic that was the "secret" of his success. Although Rose's forbidding presence was enough to crack some competitors, Harrison reveals the humor, generosity and unshakable loyalty of a man who stands as a symbol of the true American horseman.

This gratifying study of a phenomenon that has imprinted itself upon the folklore of big--city life, is a joyful book focusing upon the street performers in Washington Square Park in New York City.

While documenting the complex expressions of street performance in a specific outdoor environment over a period of four years, "Drawing a Circle in a Square" gives a broad examination to the relationship between outdoor performance and urban culture.

In this book we learn that most American cities prohibit street performance, charging such entertainers with vagrancy or soliciting, the performer--joyfully, cautiously, heroically--persists.

On sidewalks throughout the country, in theaters reduced to their barest essentials, the performer juggles, blows fire, performs magic, and tells jokes, appealing both to our sense of humor and to our longing for a moment of spontaneity in our city--structured lives.

"Drawing a Circle in a Square" is the first scholarly documentation and analysis of street performance. Based primarily upon original research, it makes a contribution that is as much toward a particular subject. Promoting the study of performance as an important and valuable vehicle for inter-disciplinary research and thought, it is a model of the kinds of research being developed in the emerging field of performance studies.
