a sensitive and humour filled glimpse of the life of a cowboy in the Canadian west

This book accurately and skillfully details Alan's early years as he grew up on a ranch in the Cariboo area of BC in Western Canada. It is by turns, touching, enlightening and funny. The author is easy to read, yet the subject isn't tossed off lightly. He grabs your interest and then proceeds to share a snapshot of a fascinating life. This kind of life doesn't really exist any more. If you've ever wondered what growing up cowboy was like, or what life in a log house without electricity in the back woods of BC would be like, this is a book you will devour.
