Presents the lingo of the American West and sayings often found in ranch and cowboy life.
The sayin's in this book are from the author's collection of old-time Western lore and art. The collection was started in 1950 after listening to old-time survivors of the Territorial days while on assignment as a Farm and Ranch editor for Arizona newspapers or for magazine covering seven western states. Savvy Savin's is made of lean and meaty chunks of Western horse-sense with a no-nonsense, colorful candor to match the men and the country. -- amazon.com
