<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>The 18 fictional stories of Sit a Tall Horse weave a substantial reality, its characters forged by lifetimes of ranch work with horses and cattle. Its main character Ben Wilder could be any cowboy, whose life story and skills prepare him to meet the needs and troubles of the K-Bar head-on, rising to be foreman of this vast, hidden ranch.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Sit a Tall Horse is an interwoven set of fictional stories that explore the<br /> shrinking world of the cowhand over the past 80 years, built of intense<br /> personal experiences that depend on a cow hand's close observations, <br /> stubborn commitments and sudden risks. True to the long stretches of quiet<br /> that await any cow hand, it is told in 18 interconnected stories focused on<br /> one cowhand over time, Ben Wilder. Through his eyes we watch and tend<br /> closely to the animals on ranches, and see where these workers fit into a<br /> rough-and-ready world that seems to be moving steadily beyond their control.<br /> The personal stories speak of who still does this work, where these cowhands<br /> come from, why and how they stick, and how together they continue to make a<br /> life.<br /> <br /> <br /> </p>
