Cowboy poetry began in the glory days of the Old West, just after the Civil War. Found on trail drives and roundups, cowboy poetry became popular in bunkhouses, around campfires, and wherever cowboys spent time between jobs. You Gotta Love Cowboys offers a variety of poetry by F. Jackrabbit McMurry and a bonus section of poems by five of his friends. Take off your boots, remove your hat, sit down, and enjoy cowboy poetry at its finest.
