Lz Cowboy: A Cowboy's Journal 1979-1981
ISBN: 9781574410242 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 181 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In the summer of 1979 John Erickson learned that Lawrence Ellzey was looking for a ranch hand. "Lawrence and his son Tom had a cow/calf and yearling operation headquartered on Wolf Creek, some twenty-five miles southeast of Perryton, Texas, and I was interested in the job. There were many qualities I admired in the Ellzey family, but the one which bound us most closely together was our love of ranch life, in all its forms and expressions: the beauty of a sunset on Wolf Creek; the changes in the weather; pride in horses and horsemanship; an endless curiosity about the land and the peculiar...

Catch Rope: The Long Arm of the Cowboy: The History and Evolution of Ranch Roping
ISBN: 9781574411133 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 188 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. For more than a hundred years, American cowboys have made their living through the skilled use of horse and rope. Whole libraries have been devoted to the horse, but no one, until now, has written a thorough study of the origins and evolution of ranch roping--which differs from arena roping as practiced by rodeo cowboys.
Author/cowboy John Erickson studies ranch roping from every angle: its origins in the Old World; old-time loops and throws; the influence of modern team roping; and the endless debate between those cowboys who rope 'hard and fast' and those who 'dally.' Mixing... For more than a hundred years, American cowboys have made their living through the skilled use of horse and rope. Whole libraries have been devoted to...

The Modern Cowboy: Second Edition
ISBN: 9781574411775 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. "The American cowboy is a mythical character who refuses to die," says author John R. Erickson. On the one hand he is a common man: a laborer, a hired hand who works for wages. Yet in his lonely struggle against nature and animal cunning, he becomes larger than life. Who is this cowboy? Where did he come from and where is he today? Erickson addresses these questions based on firsthand observation and experience in Texas and Oklahoma. And in the process of describing and defining the modern working cowboy-his work, his tools and equipment, his horse, his roping technique, his style of dress,...

Economists are Morons
ISBN: 9781517015831 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 146 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In my previous book, Human Beings are Idiots, I showed readers how our thought process is able to fool people into believing that they are much smarter than they actually are. I showed readers that our ideas and our concept of reality are one in the same. The net effect of this being that no matter how ignorant, short-sighted or self-serving an individual's ideas about the world may be, those ideas will always appear to do an effective job at describing reality; thus fooling the individual into believing that their ideas represent the truth about the world we live in. In that book I briefly...

The assessment of the generals and political leaders, as well as of the wranglings within both the Allied and Axis commands, is completely unsparing. The climactic battle, so vividly described here, leaves the...
