Some More Horse Tradin'

Some More Horse Tradin'

From the same corral that produced the widely loved Horse Tradinâ‚¬, Ben â‚¬Å“Docâ‚¬Â Green has rounded up fifteen new yarns filled with the ornery yet irresistible â‚¬Å“conâ‚¬Â that has branded Docâ‚¬s books as classics of Western Americana.
Â
Some More Horse Tradinâ‚¬ recounts the go-arounds of Doc and a whole slew of craggy old-timers and rangy characters, including a watermelon hauler â‚¬Å“who has a bit of snuff that seeps out a little on his whiskers,â‚¬Â Professor Know-It-All, the â‚¬Å“charitableâ‚¬Â Mr. Undertaker, and the well-known public cowboy Will Rogers. See all of them matching their wiles and hear a lot of palaver, dealinâ‚¬ and tradinâ‚¬ for well-bred usinâ‚¬-type mares, snorty-like range horses, and even used-to-be bad horses from the tumbleweeded plains of Texas to the mountain meadows of Yankee Vermont. Watch the Doc stretch a city ordinance with a frustrated lawman in â‚¬Å“The Last Trail Drive Through Downtown Dallasâ‚¬Â and admire the old-time knavery, skill, and salesmanship in such tales as â‚¬Å“Gittinâ‚¬ Even,â‚¬Â â‚¬Å“Brethren Horse Traders,â‚¬Â Â â‚¬Å“Mule Schoolinâ‚¬,â‚¬Â and â‚¬Å“Water Treatment and the Sore-Tailed Bronc.â‚¬Â
Â
So here you goâ‚¬"with Doc Green and his horse-tradinâ‚¬ West in finest fettle. As he puts it himself, â‚¬Å“These apples come from the same barrel as Horse Tradinâ‚¬ but they ainâ‚¬t none of them spotty.â‚¬Â
