Synopsis
This is a riveting first-hand account of a defiant hell-raiser in the wild and tumultuous American Southwest. At the age of fourteen, Joe Fussell hopped trains to escape from school and the authority he scorned. Joe became a roving cowpuncher across the Texas territory, tilling the land, wrangling cattle, and working in livery stables, moving on whenever his feet began to itch. In a time and place with no law, the young cowboy took it upon himself to exact revenge on those who trespassed him or those who were abusing authority. Joe recounts tales of cowboy adventures, narrow escapes, undercover work as a Texas Ranger, and life on the railroads. Even after he was married, a spark of his wild cowboy spirit remained as he continued his work as a railman during the rise of the railroad in the Southwest. In his time on the railroads, Joe worked up from switchman to yardmaster, travelling everywhere from New Orleans to San Francisco. Joe's unadorned prose is as exposed and simple as the wide, open Texas plains. His unpretentious, unique voice embodies the spirit of the old West., Unbridled Cowboy is a riveting firsthand account of a defiant hell-raiser in the wild and tumultuous American Southwest in the late 1800s.
