Description
Rawhide Rawlins Stories by Charles M. Russell is a lively collection of frontier tales told in the plainspoken, colorful style of the American cowboy. Originally penned and illustrated by Russell, one of the West's most celebrated cowboy artists, these stories preserve the humor, hardships, and larger-than-life characters of the Old West with an authenticity only an insider could provide.
Through the voice of "Rawhide Rawlins," Russell recounts yarns of ranch life, bronco-busting, cattle drives, and campfire camaraderie. The stories are filled with rough-and-ready cowhands, outlaws, and drifters, as well as the everyday struggles of men and women trying to carve a living out of an unforgiving land. Told in dialect and peppered with the wit and exaggeration of oral storytelling, they capture not only the facts of Western life but also the spirit and humor that sustained those who lived it.
Accompanied by Russell's own illustrations, the collection is as much a visual feast as it is a literary one. His drawings bring to life the landscapes, horses, and human figures that populate the stories, creating an immersive experience that blends art and folklore.
Rawhide Rawlins Stories stands as both entertainment and cultural preservation -- a record of cowboy speech, attitudes, and imagination from one of the West's greatest interpreters. For lovers of Western lore, it offers a direct line back to the chuckwagon and campfire, where stories shaped identity and laughter softened the harsh edges of frontier life.
