Joe Robinson A Cowboy's Life

By: Logan, Aaron

This is the remarkable story of Joe Robinson, an Arizona cowboy born in Texas in 1911, told in his own words as recorded on tape recorder. Starting his cowboy career at a young age, Joe experienced the end of the golden age of the cowboy, adapting to dramatic changes in the industry, while managing to remain a working cowboy his entire life.

Joe's journey took him from the open ranges of Texas to the rugged country of Northern Arizona. His life as a traditional cowboy is testament to the independence, self-sufficiency, and satisfaction found in the cowboy subculture. This narrative covers his encounters with the harsh realities of nature, his deep connection to horses, his knowledge of working with cattle, and the profound friendships he forged along the way.

Filled with vivid anecdotes such as roping a bear from horseback, or being trapped over night under a dead, lightning- struck horse. These are just a couple of the exciting tales related in this story. "Joe Robinson: A Cowboy's Life" provides a first-hand account with unique insight into the world of the working cowboy in the American West and is an important addition to the history of this bygone era.
