Log of a Cowboy

Set in 1882, the novel unfolds as a meticulous, day‑by‑day journal of Tommy Moore, a young cowboy embarking on a five-month cattle drive. Tasked with guiding 3,000 head of longhorn cattle from Brownsville, Texas, to Montana along the Great Western Cattle Trail, Tommy narrates the grueling and often dangerous reality of frontier life—crossing rivers, navigating stampede threats, dealing with cattle rustlers, and weathering hunger, thirst, and exhaustion.
