Synopsis

In 1914, Dorothy Morrell bursts into the California rodeo world like a meteor. She makes daring rides on everything from burros to buckers. This delightfully written narrative chronicles Dorothy’s life from her unlikely beginnings, born in Russia to Volga German farmers, to the zenith of her heydays. As the lady bronk rider, Dorothy rides to championship money - and world title - at Cheyenne’s Frontier Days. Dorothy partners up with cowboy poet, Skeeter Bill Robbins, first as part of his fancy roping act and finally as Mrs. Skeeter Bill. Together, their passion for their sport takes them to rodeos all across the US and then on to the First International Rodeo or Cowboy Championships held in London in 1924. Dorothy Morrell: Buckin’ Horse Rider celebrates the pluck and grit demanded of cowgirls even to this day.
