" " Praise for Way Out West by Jane and Michael Stern " " " For everyone who's a buckaroo at heart, Jane and Michael Stern's Way Out West is a tootin' romp through a nostalgic word of vintage cowboy films, long-gone roadside attractions, western wear and much, much more. " - Lynn Van Matre, Chicago Tribune " " " The Sterns always manage to get to the bottom of the western lore and legend and hokum- from brands to saguaros - but they are too clever to let you forget the broadly humorous exploitation that real westerners have made of their history and their wide open spaces. " - Raymond Sokolov, Wall Street Journal " " " The Sterns are American pop culture vultures who always bring an air of unbridled zest to their books ... The Sterns hit the trail again, this time roping readers into big-sky country and points south with their eye-popping illustrations, goofy photos, witty text and quirky observations. " - Kristin McMurran, People " Contents include: " ACKNOWLEDGMENTS INTRODUCTION THE COWBOY WAY The Cowboy Ideal Gene Autry's Ten Commandments of a Cowboy The Code of the West Cowboy Sidekicks Cowboy Skills How To Read a Brand King of the Cowboys ?: Hoppy vs. Roy John Wayne Ol' Proc Sing Cowboys WESTERN STYLE Rhinestone Cowboys and Cowgirls Hollywood Fashion Plates: Gene Autry and Roy Rogers Cowboy Hats Hat Etiquette Cowboy Boots Chaps Buckskin Indian-Inspired Style and Fiesta Fashions Indian Jewelry Along the Turquoise Trail Western Ties HORSES AND THE COWBOYS WHO LOVE THEM Horses and the Cowboys Who Love Them Horse Colors Trigger and Other Equine Superstars The Well-Dressed Horse Horse Lingo's Spanish Roots "End of the Trail" "Old Paint" RODEO: THE COWBOY SPORT The Cowboy Sport The Events Championship Buckles Rodeo Queens Rodeo's Pioneer Women A Sampling of Rodeo Greats Rodeo Names Hall of Fame Rodeo Animals "The Rhythm of Rode" HAPPY TRAILS: THE ROAD WEST Happy Trails: The Road West Route 66 Natural Wonders America's Version Cacti Some Saguaro Facts Roadside Wonders of the West Twenty-five Unnatural Wonders of the Western Roadside CRITTERS Critters Longhorn Cattle Buffalo Asses An Ass by Any Other Name Coyotes Roadrunners Armadillos Horned Toads Deadly Creatures Rattler Facts Jackalopes Skulls THE INDIAN IMAGE The Indian Image Strange Names and Sign Language The Chief Motif Tepees FOOD OF THE WEST Come and Get It !
