The Duke of the Chutes: Harry Vold's Sixty Years in Rodeo

The Duke of the Chutes: Harry Vold's Sixty Years in Rodeo

Harry Vold produced his first rodeo in 1944 when he joined his brothers to put on the Asker Stampede near the little community of Asker in southern Alberta, Canada. Today, the Harry Vold Rodeo Company is the premier producer of rodeos including Cheyenne Frontier Days and the National Finals Rodeo.

Harry has been named Stock Contractor of the Year eleven times by the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association and is a member of both the ProRodeo Hall of Fame in the US and the Canadian Rodeo Hall of Fame.

Author Loren R. Whittemore worked closely with Harry to write an important segment of the history of rodeo. Through Harry s recollections and family memories, the author evokes the days when rodeo week was the highlight of the ranchers year and rodeo stock was driven on trails from town to town .
