Her Rugged Cowboy by Cameron Hart Pdf

**Jade: I wasn't sure what to expect when I came back to my small hometown in east Texas, but it certainly wasn't the tall, chiseled, too handsome ranch foreman, Noah. I never thought I'd be back here after moving to Denver four years ago, but when I got the call that my daddy died unexpectedly, it was up to me to tie up loose ends and sell the ranch. Except the ranch is a mess and Noah keeps hanging around and checking on me and wiping away my tears as I work through the complicated emotions of being back home. Home. This place has never been home, but one look in Noah's warm, brown, understanding eyes, and I think maybe I've found where I belong. **Noah: I remember Jade from when I first started working at Rivera Ranch four years ago. She was too young for me to appreciate then, but now that she's back, I can't take my eyes off of her fiery red hair, soft curves, and bright eyes full of depth and sorrow. She had her reasons for leaving, though I don't know what they are. I'm determined to find out all of her secrets, including whatever she's running from back in Denver. She might not be ready for a cowboy like me, but I'll help her fight through her demons and prove to her we belong together. **Her Rugged Cowboy is the first book in the Roped in by Love series and can be read as a standalone. Jade thinks she has to fix everything on her own, but Noah proves to her again and again that he'll always be there. There's plenty of steam, a sweet happily ever after, and enough drama to keep things interesting!

Up the Trail by Tim Lehman Pdf

How did cattle drives come about—and why did the cowboy become an iconic American hero? Cattle drives were the largest, longest, and ultimately the last of the great forced animal migrations in human history. Spilling out of Texas, they spread longhorns, cowboys, and the culture that roped the two together throughout the American West. In cities like Abilene, Dodge City, and Wichita, buyers paid off ranchers, ranchers paid off wranglers, and railroad lines took the cattle east to the packing plants of St. Louis and Chicago. The cattle drives of our imagination are filled with colorful cowboys prodding and coaxing a line of bellowing animals along a dusty path through the wilderness. These sturdy cowhands always triumph over stampedes, swollen rivers, and bloodthirsty Indians to deliver their mighty-horned companions to market—but Tim Lehman’s Up the Trail reveals that the gritty reality was vastly different. Far from being rugged individualists, the actual cow herders were itinerant laborers—a proletariat on horseback who connected cattle from the remote prairies of Texas with the nation’s industrial slaughterhouses. Lehman demystifies the cowboy life by describing the origins of the cattle drive and the extensive planning, complicated logistics, great skill, and good luck essential to getting the cows to market. He reveals how drives figured into the larger story of postwar economic development and traces the complex effects the cattle business had on the environment. He also explores how the premodern cowboy became a national hero who personified the manly virtues of rugged individualism and personal independence. Grounded in primary sources, this absorbing book takes advantage of recent scholarship on labor, race, gender, and the environment. The lively narrative will appeal to students of Texas and western history as well as anyone interested in cowboy culture.
