The saga of the American cowgirl, unlike that of the cowboy, is not
well-chronicled, but their history is as appealing as it is colorful.
The First Ladies from the Great American West live again in this
comprehensive pictorial chronicle. Many of the photos are printed here
for the first time. Detailed captions provide the reader with rodeo
lore, as well as biographical accomplishments of these extraordinary
women never before presented in a cohesive format. A true reference
work, Cowgirls: Early Images and Collectibles includes three dimensional
collectibles along with hundreds of original photos which pay tribute to
these dedicated, gallant women. This volume is a joy for the serious
Western/Americana collector, and fascinating to anyone interested in
women's history.
