Summary

This book is about the life of cowboys on cattle drives and other experiences they endured. It is about hard times and good times and making lifelong friends including Black, White, Mexican, American Indian, and a woman trail boss. It is about facing hostile Indian attacks and rustlers and the battles that ensued, and about sheer bravery and fear when facing down another man in a gunfight. It is also about a quiet, shy young cowboy falling in love and marrying the girl of his dreams and working on a ranch.

It includes flashbacks interrupting the chronological order of the main narrative to take the listener back in time to the past events in a character's life. It explores notable historical figures and time periods in these settings. Considering the cowboy code #4, "Do what has to be done", most of the men and women in this novel served their country in times of conflict and distress. It discusses the family's lineage, patriotism, and war service including the Mexican War, Civil War, Indian wars of 1876, Spanish American War, WW1, WW2, the Korean Conflict, and Vietnam.
