The story features two cowboys on a mission to live the cowboy way of life in their own modern day America. Ornery is an ex-school teacher, civil war veteran, top hand cowman of the Oliver Ulysses Tucker Spread, and mentor to Slim. Slim, an orphan teen out of Philadelphia, PA is a cowboy in training trying to make it as a cowhand.
Hammer communicates the message of work ethic and the “Cowboy Code” in this powerful story about a friendship between two cowboys in the American west. This historical fiction is an educational and entertaining text that truly sets the scene of what it is like to truly be a cowboy.
“Seeing a narrow land bridge to Ornery, Slim rode swiftly across it to his partner’s side of the ravine. As he rode toward Ornery, he chuckled a grand chuckle as he watched his saddler partner entertaining the whole west from the back of that four-legged beast.”
