Description
"In this study, historian Michael Allen examines the image of the rodeo cowboy and the role this image has played in popular culture over in the 20th century. He sees rodeo as a significant American folk festival and the rodeo cowboy as the surviving avatar of a nearly vanished authentic figure--the real cowboy, who embodies the skills and values of traditional western rural culture"--,Provided by publisher.
