    J. Frank Dobie / JFrank Dobie
    Cow People records the fading memories of a bygone Texas, the reminiscences of the cow people themselves. These are the Texans of the don’t-fence-me-in era, their faces pinched by years of squinting into the desert glare, tanned by the sun and coarsened by the dust of the Chisholm Trail. Their stories are often raucous but just as often quiet as hot plains under a pale Texan sk...

Their story is the bedrock on which the history of the cow country of America is founded. J. Frank Dobie was a tale spinner who appreciated th...
