Synopsis

This book is a compilation of a few of my cowboy poems. It is a diverse mixture of topics about ranching and cowboyin.' They vary from purely fictional, such as Team Ropers From Hell and Another Hundred Years, to poems based on real experiences, such as, Crossin' the Gila and The Dog Is Smellin' My Saddle. Some are inspirational like Between the Doors, and A Cowboy's Savior. Still others are more numorous, such as There's A Cowboy At the Gate, Leavin' Town, and My Talkin' Horse which fits in the slightly weird category along with one of my grandaughter's favorites The Window. Rick Huff, a nationally recognized reviewer of Western Music and Cowboy Poetry recently gave this book a very enthusiastic review. He said Hooker is ranch-raised and one heckuva poet, as he proves in 'A Cowboy Spirit.' He went on to say, This one is special. Make the effort to find it. True West Magazine chose A Cowboy Spirit as Best Western Poetry Book for 2014, in their January issue. I truly believe there's poems for everyone in my collection. I hope you find some you like.

A propos du livre

Biographie de l'auteur

Born in Silver City, New Mexico I was raised on our family ranch on Bear Creek, near Cliff and Gila, New Mexico. I graduated from Cliff High School and Western New Mexico University. We raised Hereford calves we sold as yearlings. We raised our own Quarter Horses for the ranch work. We also farmed, growing alfalfa, oats, and permanent pasture. When the ranch was supporting too many families, I went to the Sheriff's Dept. where I rose to senior patrol sergeant. I've worked construction, truck driving, and at local copper mines, where I still work operating huge electric shovels. My relaxation is spending time with my daughters, Tammy and Sandra, family, and friends, working in my pasture, and writing poems. They encouraged me to compile this book. I hope you enjoy it.
