Nebraska's Cowboy Trail: A User's Guide

Nebraska's Cowboy Trail

Excellent trail guide. I particularly like the format of trail narrative with a piece of local history inserted for the key cities. This is the kind of guide that will inspire you to slow down, smell the primrose (and the cow chips) and visit with the locals. Clear interesting narratives that make the trip very attractive.
